How do you calculate PEBD and date of rank?

I'm concerned my PEBD and DOR were not done correctly.

I joined the Army National Guard in June of 2007 and got out June of 2017. I went active duty September 2018. My SRB shows a PEBD of Sept. 24 2017. Is this correct?

As for my rank, I made E-4 in 2009 in the guard. My SRB shows a date of rank sept 24 2018. Do I lose all that time in grade?

I went through the same thing, your new DOR will be the day you went active duty. You will get to keep the time in service for pay but have your retention NCO re do your timeline. Make sure you have all your paper work from the guard tho.

You lose your DOR due to the break in service. You can find that information in AR 600-20 Army Command Policy. Your PEBD is wrong and your Career Counselor can fix that for you. It happens all the time with prior service at the MEPS.

PEBD is the date you enlisted into the Armed Services. Check your original DD Form 4, enlistment contract from 2007. DOR is the date you were advanced to E-4 and either an order/memo or a DA 4187 should have been filed into your OMPF. If not, show an LES when you started E-4 pay back in 2009. Unfortunately, much of the HR and pay data doesn't transfer automatically from RC to AC; it takes some work from a detailed oriented HR specialist.
