got some very good news yesterday. I had unofficially know for about two weeks but I OFFICIALLY got notified yesterday.. apparently the Department of the Army has seen the error of its ways and has decided they needed to put me on the List for Master Sergeant.   WOOO HOOO that is a SWEET pay raise... most folks retire E-7 so for me to actually break thru that ceiling is a true honor to myself and my family for all the hard work we have done. I have NO idea when I am going to actually get promoted.. I have a sequence number and I have to wait for them to get to it... but hey... I know its coming!

AL

Congratulations, and thank you for your service to our country.

WELL DONE SIR!

What type of added responsibilities does that promotion have?

SFC_Al,

Congrats on the promotion.  I do not know what your MOS is, but in mine(63) they do not promote that many each year.  

If you are ever in Missouri for any reason send me a PM.
