First, Congratulations on your promotion to First Lieutenant. And yes, all promotions are special and should be treated as such. Having officiated, attended and planned numerous promotion ceremonies over a 30 year career, let me first say that I agree with you.....all promotions, no matter the rank, should be treated very special and performed in a manner that promotes and showcases the growth of that Soldier, and highlights the accomplishment of the promoted with his/her family/friends by their side. (Should the situation permit). I was never, and never will be a fan of the “in office” promotions. They cheapen the moment and it doesn’t allow the organization to show their appreciation for the promoted accomplishments. In my opinion, promotions should be done in front of a formation or at a venue that will highlight the prestige of the moment. As you progress through your Army career, remember this moment, and how it made you feel......Be sure to never let this happen on your watch. Hold those that fall under your charge accountable as well. If the traditions, or custom and courtesies fall by the way side or, are not passed down properly, it’s because we as leaders have failed....and they will be lost forever. Don’t mean to sound preachy but this was one of my pet peeves when I was in uniform. Once again, Congratulations 1LT...Looking to see and hear big things from you in the near future.

Dexter Kimble I appreciate it and thank you for your comment! I really enjoyed reading it.The only way to change certain things is to provide the troops what wasn’t done for me.

Good afternoon, I'm headed to OCS in 2 weeks and have transportation as my #1 branch. I'm not sure what your schedule is but I was wondering if you had time for a quick 15 minute call or so to go over your experiences, leadership schooling, etc. Thanks

[@Jabarikjay]

I don’t mind, DM me on IG

[@dongjinlee9461]

Sir, does Army have a new policy for promotion from 2LT to 1LT now? It was automatic promotion before, but I think they've changed it this year.

[@Jabarikjay]

The policy was for CPT. Your COC can defer your promotion if they feel you aren’t ready

[@dongjinlee9461]

@@Jabarikjay Does it mean that the promotion policy from 2LT to 1LT is still same as before?
