SGT Promotable

Today Brian went before the promotion board.  The promotion process is two parts.  First is the board where you are challenged by a panel of your superiors.  Your performance is reviewed and if you pass, you are awarded the promotable status.  The second part is a point system.  Education, awards, physical training, marksmanship, and other aspects of your military career give you points.  The Army puts out a cut-off for points each month.  Now that Brian has his promotable status he just has to work on gaining the rest of his points.
