I often wonder what I would have done if I made E-8 and E-9 sooner. Hard to tell, because I couldn't keep my mouth shut as an E-7 and E-8...but I know this is something that will be addressed as our Xrays are progressing quickly. In another year or two they'll be looking at E-8 and still have 8 or more years ahead of them. It's a hard sell when you know that 2 years as a Tm Sgt and then you have to move out of the way. That's a lot of staff time...even if you're fortunate to get a 1SG position...or IODA Tm Sgt position...it's still a long way.
