If a National Gaurd Soldier is on title 10 can they be promoted by the active duty component?

I am just curious as to how this would work with the slot system in the National Gaurd.

You don't need to ask your leadership, section personnel, or Google things anymore, Sir. We have rally point

Not normally, your promotions would still go through NG/State System. If there isn't a slot there isn't a promotion. if a slot opens up with in your state in your MOS and that grade, you can still be offered it, you just don't report till you get back from your title 10 tour. At least that is how it was before I retired.

Not that this applies in this case but the E-2 and E-3 promotions are still auto like the federal system and can be done with little involvement of the state.

Thank you for answering Sergeant, do you happen to know what regulation covers that? We were discussing the concept at work and nobody could seem to find a firm answer.

Cannot say for Guard but when they called 80 of us up from the reserves and assigned us to active duty units, our promotions still came from our reserve command that we fell under.

SPC (Join to see) - On Title 10 orders you are just activated you are still in the National Guard. Last year i was on title 10 orders but i still had to go through the Reserve side for my SFC promotion. But AR 600-8-19 pretty much states the state will hold boards for national guard soldiers and title 10 AGR national guard. AGR soldiers fall under a totally different title 10 section also so don't get confused with a regular mobilization under title 10 and agr title 10

SFC(P) (Join to see) - Section 7-34 pretty much sums up the centralized and decentralized promotion boards for NG even title 10 agr NG. It would look like the LTC in your COC would have the authority to promote you to SGT through a board.
