Good move if you ask me. Promotions in the Marines has been too slow causing many to leave at the end of their first enlistment. You shouldn't have to re-enlist to get to the rank of Sgt.

TIS and TIG requirements are examples of "upper management" proving that they don't trust "first line supervisors" but cannot figure out any better way to manage the system.

I made E5 in Vietnam after 25 months in the Corps. They need to speed up the promotions to keep experienced people to train the new recruits.

Took a while to get Cpl and 1 year later I was Sgt. Luckily my MOS folded into another, lol. I was late to my own promotion because my Ahole shop didn’t tell me, smfh
