<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>That soldier is really lucky because with the new promotion point system makes it impossible for you to get promoted without having SSD 3 complete.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>You have a year. If not completed them you lose your rank.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>You are supposed to complete BLC within a year of your date of rank.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I know it can be after up to 365 days, but I believe it should be required before you attain the rank. Obtain the knowledge then get the rank after showing it. And in my days BLC was called WLC.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>It&#39;s a year. If I had it my way you would get pinned SGT during graduation of BLC. That&#39;s the way it should be.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I have knowledge on the time that have to complete.<br /> The longer it takes to complete this hurtle the further you are behind your peers.<br /> In todays ARMY, &quot;You Need to Keep Up With the Big Dogs or You will Find Yourself Left on the Porch with the Rocking Chairs.<br /><br />HtH<br />Tim

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>A Year. But don&#39;t let that year slip by. Under the new promotion updates, All SPCs must complete BLC before they can pin on the rank. Should you find yourself demoted back to SPC.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Within a year after your promotion, unless your unit is put on deployment orders and those orders happen on your school date. It happened to me a few times.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Thought the new change to the Enlisted Promotion System went into effect October 1st? There was a big rush here to process promotions before September 30th.
