So I'm up for advancement tomorrow, meaning a pay raise and more pull with the Navy, kind of a big deal. For those that have/are served/serving, I'm up for E-5. The Navy does an advancement exam every 6 months and that, factored in with a yearly evaluation, college education, and award points, what determines whether or not you get advanced. I'm a little nervous but also slightly confident at the same time that I'll make it (I've got the highest points possible with my evaluation, which is the #2 highest determiner of whether you make rank or not). Unfortunately I won't know until around Thanksgiving whether I made it or not, but the worst part is tomorrow. We'll just have to wait and see how it goes :icon_mrgreen:
