Spinner Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Curious - what happens to those that were passed over for Captain in FY12...Yes, that's right, passed over as a pilot for CAPTAIN. No problems with the law, DUIs, or negative paper work. I would normally be pinning on in September 2013, but since I was passed over I was waiting on this years board. There was a group of us who had blank PRFs submitted to the board last year (while deployed). Are we still pretty much SOL? Or will I receive an apology and a promotion, and pin on in Sept '13? Haha, yeah.....sure.... I'm actually working this situation right now. Of course, no one at MPF or AFPC can pull their head out of their ass and give me an answer. Fuktards...

Jughead Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 I was hoping this nonsense would continue just long enough for the first disillusioned passed-over 1Lt to write a "do not promote me" letter to the board & walk away from his 10 year commitment in six months.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oo7kerpow Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Good start. Next the genius who came up with the failed policy that directly resulted in countless wasted hours should be publicly reprimanded as a general warning. Too late. Opr bullet and promotion already awarded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gravedigger Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 From what I've heard, those 1Lts passed over during last year's board will pin on 1 Jan 14, just like they would have if they were selected 1 APZ had the board convened this year. The folks that were APZ to the last board and passed over again were all forced to separate by 31 Mar, so they're all gone now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herk Driver Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Haven't heard any of that thus far. The last official word that I got was that those that were passed over will meet this years "promotion process" and be considered again under the 100% "fully qualified" criteria. Just finished spending an inordinate amount of time writing these PRFs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This guy's DOR is at the end of this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champ Kind Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 I also wonder if the people that had previously been passed over will lose the indicator on their SURFs that it had happened since this O-3 PRF process is canx'd.... for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a group of us who had blank PRFs submitted to the board last year (while deployed). Are we still pretty much SOL? Or will I receive an apology and a promotion, and pin on in Sept '13? Haha, yeah.....sure.... I was passed over as well as a nav with no issues either. We also had a pilot passed over with no problems. The non-select counselor said it was because we "didn't have a push for a leadership position on the PRF". When we told her that flyers don't have leadership positions as LT's, she said "well the other jobs do". I guess being a flight commander over three people as a 1Lt is more important that two years of undergrad and all the associated training to get us mission ready. Anyway, I asked the question and I was told we are not getting back-promoted. We are rolling a year back into the 2010 year group. I haven't been able to get a straight answer on when we will pin on, but my best guess is 1 January. I'm still trying to find this out for sure. It was a horrible process to begin with and you know how Force Support is...there's one person who knows their job and I can't find him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
