Skeeter-wings call for faster Army promotions
A Pvt (E2) in the U S Army writes to his commander asking why soldiers with over a year of service and 12 plus months in rank remain unpromoted. He cites 43000 skeeter wings with senior time, 29000 plus over 21 months, and 16000 E4s with 36 months but few on promotion lists. He urges action, notes UOC rotation as a factor, and cites policy discussions from DA and Callaway.
