ATM Promotion

[Chad Norman]

31, good grief,

Did he join when he was 8?

Would he be the first chief who didn't frequent Swinderby?

G, looks like you've got a bit of competition for that CASWO job DT_Xtremez_14:

Promotion must have picked up over the last few years, I know somebody aged 31 who has just got his Chief.

I remember a couple of SAC(T) who got their tapes 4 years after joining up. Say another 4-5 years as a Cpl then attain Sgt at their 8-9 year point. That leaves potentially 5 years in rank to get picked up for chief. If the guy you stated joined up aged 17 then I guess it can happen.

He joined as a mech/mech as well, so very good going. But he must have seriously sucked some cock! DT_Xtremez_14:

He must have slipped through onto his FT course very quickly in a similar timescale as the mech techs did otherwise he has been picked up early in one of the ranks.

In fact thinking about it, he can't have been a mech mech and be age 31. The mech mech stuff would have finished after he joined wouldn't it?

Nope! He joined the same time as someone else I know and it was still going, in fact that person is still a Cpl, I think.

Don't forget time in training, a JT fitters course was 11 months.
He must have snuck in a year early here and there or done only 18 months as an SAC otherwise for me the figures are slightly off.

 

[rest have risen above me]

As of this year he only had to do 3 years as a Sgt before eligible for CT.so ther's your year. And he might be 31 and 11 months. even the AC to CT in 16 years??? Methinks he may be a little vain about his age..lol
