SECTION I: PROMOTION
Promotions are awarded to Sailors for their hard work and dedication to the U.S. Department of the Navy. Promotions are based off merit and hard work, and not off the time in grade of an individual. In order for an individual to be eligible for a promotion, they must have met the time and grade outlined in this policy. For promotion from W-5 to Officer Cadet (Officer Schooling) a review must be conducted through the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations (OPNAV) and the Deputy Chief of Naval Operations for Education & Training (DCNO E&T). This promotion may only be conducted by the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) or by the Vice Chief of Naval Operations (VCNO). Promotions from O-1 to O-6 must be approved by any member of the Flag Grade or OPNAV before they are able to take place. Promotions from O-7 to O-10 may only be completed through the authority of the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO), Vice Chief of Naval Operations (VCNO). Review Sub-section (1) Promotion and Demotion Scale for the promotional authority of Officers.
This range reflects the promotion and demotion authority of a Commissioned Officer at the given pay grade. OPNAV automatically qualifies any Commissioned Officer to promote up to E-9.
Article A - Promotion Scale
W-3 = E-3
W-4 = E-4
W-5 = E-5
MCPON = E-5
O-1 = E-6
O-2 = E-7
O-3 = E-9
O-4 = W-1
O-5 = W-3
O-6 = W-4
O-7 = O-2
O-8 = O-3
O-9 = O-6
O-10 = O-9
CNO/VCNO/CJCS = O-11
The Promotion Scale displayed above reflects the promotional and demotion authority of a Commissioned Officer at any given rank. To promote, it is customary to call the sailor, soldier, or marine to report. While they're reporting the Commissioned Officer is to state why they are being promoted and give them their new motto (and possibly uniform). All TIG requirements must also be met before a promotion can be granted, as stated in Section II of this document.
Sub-Section II: Promotion Review & Authorization Requirements
Promotions through W-1 to W-5 must be reviewed and must must be authorized by that member's current Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) OPNAV member in addition to a performance review which also be conducted before a promotion may take place. All TIG requirements must also be met before a promotion can be granted, as stated in Section II: Sub-Section IV of this document.
To receive a Field Commission (promotion from Midshipman to Ensign) an official ceremony must be conducted and the promotion must be authorized by the CNO or VCNO. Promotions from O-1 and above must also be authorized by the CNO / VCNO after a review of their performance.
SECTION II: TIME-IN-GRADE
Time-in-grade (TIG) is a system which is used by the USMC as a minimum requirement before an advancement or promotion is given. Upon passing the TIG requirement, personnel may be considered for promotion if all other requirements are met. This system may be nullified by the CNO or VCNO in rare circumstances.

SECTION IV: DISCHARGES
To be discharged is to longer be a part of active service within the DoN.
Sub-Chapter I: Honorable Discharges
To receive an Honorable Discharge (HD), one must be at least the rank of E-4, and post a resignation thread on the resignation board. A service person must also leave honorably to receive an HD. This means an individual may not leave to avoid a disciplinary action.
Personnel who have received Honorable Discharge may return to USMC as long as the following conditions apply:
- Have been gone for over a month.
- Have not performed any actions harmful to the United States Marine Corps or any of her allies.
- Have not joined a hostile military.
- Have not been labelled as NEVER REHIRE
In order for personnel to be eligible for an HD, the person must post a resignation on the appropriate board for their own resignation. Personnel are not allowed to post a resignation for someone else, unless there is a physical inability to do so (i.e. not registered on the forums, not appropriately masked). All personnel who have a resignation posted through another individual will receive a Dishonorable Discharge in lieu of the requested Honorable Discharge. Similarly, all personnel posting for another will face consequences in accordance with the demotion policy.
