Promotion Process

Testing for promotion is a three step process. Time in grade is not required; however, you must demonstrate the ability to perform the duties of the rank for which you are testing. In order to test for promotion you must submit a promotion request form with a copy of your most recent report card and a current progress report attached to it on the day promotion requests are due. NO late promotion requests will be accepted. If you cannot attend the required drills during the promotion cycle you will have to wait until the next cycle. The promotion testing steps are as follows:

  • Pass the PFT test with a minimum of 200 points, or 250 points for NCOs.
  • Pass the promotion written test
  • Pass the oral board

The above steps must be passed in the order they are displayed.

 

Distinguished Unit Citation

Ribbon Request Process

In order to request a ribbon you must fill out a ribbon request form and submit it to Mrs. Proctor on the same day that promotion requests are due.

If documentation is required to support the request, it should be stapled to the ribbon request form.

The Young Marine is responsible for ribbon requests. If you don't submit the ribbon request when you have earned a ribbon, don't expect to receive the ribbon. The unit only tracks community service hours and activities done as a unit that warrant a ribbon.
