The Air Force Personnel Center on Thursday said that 31 enlisted airmen have been selected for supplemental promotion.
On the list are seven airmen chosen for promotion to staff sergeant, 20 selected for senior master sergeant, and four chosen for chief master sergeant.
Airmen selected for supplemental promotion typically test outside of their required cycle due to an extended temporary duty assignment or deployment to support contingency operations.
Selection is based on promotion scores derived from Weighted Airman Promotion System factors, including time in grade, time in service, enlisted performance reports, decorations, promotion fitness examination score and, in the case of junior enlisted promotions, specialty knowledge test score. Promotions to senior and chief master sergeant instead consider the Air Force supervisory exam and board scores.
