BTW, IIRC, the Air Force already has the slowest promotions. I made E-6 in a little less than 4 years. As I understand it, that’s unheard of in the Air Force. Plus, they have no warrant officers.

You are correct, I knew an E-4 who retired after 20 years with a spotless record. As she told me, in the Air Force you have kiss, ( a lot of different things), to get promoted in peacetime. And Gulf War I and II didn’t help.
Yup. Very slow. There was a split E-4 rank when I was in. Senior Airman for a year, and then Sergeant. Not sure how it’s done, now. I made Sergeant in spite of myself, and got the Hell out after 4 years.
