Who else updated their board file (Army) only to have to do the same thing the following year because they are missing orders, awards, etc.?

I updated my board file last year with all of my awards, PCS orders, etc. for the Senior Enlisted Promotion Board. This year I looked at my OMPF and most of my awards and PCS orders are gone, vanished, not there anymore. I know for a fact the information was in my OMPF before the board last year. Does HRC or some other organization delete the information to see if you are paying attention?

Amazing how records never stay current year to year.

SSG David Whittington - I am a Document specialist at my civilian job. I scan docs in all day. I work for a Mortgage company. The Crappy system that the army uses deletes stuff because of the server and the repository. The repository is a place where they go. With a system as large as the Army has, I think that some just drop out. The repository will only take so much data just sitting there. I don't know how the Army's system works, but have heard that they are switching to an new system that I use here at work. It is called Laser Fiche. I don't know when they are supposed to do the switch but the new system will take PDF's and TIFF files. The new system might stop that.

I have been trying to get mine fixed for years, since the IPERMS system come on line and it is screwed up!

Conceivably, the Promotion Board personnel could have added the additional information you submitted to the Board package, but neglected to submit to your permanent file
