The promotion list for master sergeant is out ― are you on the list?

The Air Force on Wednesday released the names of 6,176 airmen who have been selected for promotion to master sergeant.

The E-7 promotion cycle saw 29.6 percent of the 20,866 promotion-eligible technical sergeants get selected, the Air Force Personnel Center said in a release.

The average time-in-grade for selectees was 3.77 years, and their average time-in-service was 14.25 years. That means that airmen are getting promoted to master sergeant slightly faster than last year, when the average time-in-grade was 3.86 years and the average time-in-service was 14.36 years.
