Not sure how to phrase this question so I'll just put it out there: I was told by my PSG to write up my ETS award as I am getting out within the next 5 months, and I'm not sure exactly what to put for bullets. To me it seems hard to put 3 and a half years of service in a unit into 4 bullets, although I know it's possible. Do I put achievements from my time as an E1 to E4 or should I focus more on my time as an NCO? I'm not looking for someone to write my bullets for me, just some insight on what they might look like. Sorry in advance for being all over the place, any help is greatly appreciated!

Telling an SM to write their own award is pure laziness on the PSG’s part. Awards are easy as hell to write and that’s either his or your SQD LDRs responsibly to do.
Just my 1/2-cent worth.

It is...however...that's not what he came here asking. You're not helping his situation at all. He's asking questions that you're not helping to answer.
