What do I have to do after making the Army promotion list?

I went to the E-5 promotion board on Dec. 2. I have 697 promotion points and my MOS is currently at 577. My name showed up on the promotion list for Jan 1. What do I do now? Does that mean I get my E-5 on Jan 1 or what?

    Congrats, answers 2 and 3 are both correct. You can not pin on your rank however, until it is done by your unit. Should be the 4th, since block leave is running through the 3rd.

  • Yes you get to officially wear your E5 rank on the first of jan. when your company makes a formation for everybody and your 1SG and CPT make a speech, give you your certificate, and your SSG, SFC and 1SG will possibly "punch" it on your chest as most traditional units do. Kind of a way to honor becoming an NCO :D
