So if your pregnant, you can get promoted without the normal requirements. WTH?

The only requirement they can't do is attend the school. As the article stated these people have already been identified as meeting the requirements for the promotion. They have to attend BLC, ALC, SLC, ETC within a certain time period or the promotion is revoked. After reading the entire article and the explanation it makes a lot of sense.

""In order to attend these [PME] courses, the soldier cannot be on profile of any kind; we found this routinely impacted women who were pregnant and postpartum because they were unable to take the required [fitness] test," Grinston said."

That's not true. You can attend PME with a permanent profile...so saying you can't attend with a profile of "any kind" is misleading.
