FM/BP-236.V2.03 - Enlisted Ranks

For enlisted ranks from Recruit to Master Specialist, promotions are based on activity, conduct and experience. Progression is driven primarily based on combat and field exercise experience. Once a minimum threshold is met, manual checks for conduct and other listed requirements for that rank can be made.

In all cases a promotion will not be actioned if there is an active reprimand on the players dossier from within the last 30 days. Once all requirements for promotion are met, Personnel Command will raise a report recommending promotion.
