Isn’t that the same thing? You eventually reach a level where you can’t perform at the next and become classed as incompetent.

Though I would think for enlisted this happens much less than officers.




No, you get promoted to level of competence, then fired after several years instead of becoming incompetent.


It would be the same thing if promotions weren’t so ludicrous. If you are an enlisted and want to get a promotion your best bet is to max your PT scores. It really has nothing to do with your ability to do a job at all.
