Ragnar Posted March 3, 2020 Report Share Posted March 3, 2020 Anyone here any rumors of a upcoming change where SFC will be pinned CW2 upon completion of WOCS? I’ve heard this rumor from two different people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrhoodhimself07 Posted March 3, 2020 Report Share Posted March 3, 2020 I have several buddies that have gone Warrant and they all have been promoted to WO1. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thedude Posted March 3, 2020 Report Share Posted March 3, 2020 Haven’t heard it for active duty. The guard has a process for qualified E7-E9s to be promoted to CW2 after WOBC but I have only seen that done for tech warrants. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike0331 Posted March 3, 2020 Report Share Posted March 3, 2020 Not sure about aviation, but on the Guard side SFCs with a certain amount of time in grade in a feeder MOS for a technical job will pin CW2 upon completion of WOBC. Captains in aviation with 2 years TIG can also pin direct to CW2 if converting. Never heard of this being the case for aviators. Remember that for aviation WOBC concludes with WOBC-B at the end of flight school, so you are pretty close to 2 years at that point anyway. I went to WOCS last April, so I'll hit 2 years before I graduate WOBC-B since I don't start IERW until later this month. Therefore my DOR will be effective my graduation from WOBC-B. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a September IERW date but took a later date since we had a baby this fall. This isn't a good metric to go off of, as each state, flight school allocations, selected applicants waiting for school, etc, will vary. I know guard guys who were in IERW within 6 months of selection. Again, varies wildly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
