got promoted thursday. I am now AT2(AW). Feels good. for all non Navy types, that is an E5.

cut a 73 on the test and made the cutoff by 10 points. by the test alone i was in the 99th percentile, so i am hoping i get paid for it quick.

Congrats on E5. Thats what I was when I got out of the Army...Specialist 5th Class. I'll bet the pay is a tad better now days...I barely made it month to month. Hmmm ... why does that seem so similar to today's paychecks??

Congrats Kermit: My recollection is that rank has its priveleges and rank also has its responsibilities. When I mustered out I was a SP5 like FordLover1951. A long tour in Viet Nam was enough for me.
