Advancement for ATF (IS) Question

NavyStrong · 01-18-2015, 09:27 PM

So I am a future IS which is in the ATF and signed a 6 year contract. My question is will I get auto advancement out of either Boot Camp, A School, or C School? I didn't see anything saying it in my contract under guarantees. But I found this and it talks about auto advancement. http://www.public.navy.mil/bupers-np...s/1510-030.pdf

Can someone help me out on this? Thanks!

I can Easily talk about this cause i am this lol. i pick up my auto in 4 months. so if you go to boot E1 you will be promoted to E2 the day of grad so you wont have e2 stripes on. then you will wait 9 months to pick up E3. 6 months later you put on E4. now you cannot pick up E4 while in school so if you go to A/C school as a E3 you will not put on E4 until you have about a week at your Ultimate command

Thanks, how do you like being an IS? And how is A/C school? And I will be an E2 out of bootcamp even though it's not in my contract?

ATF is just a auto E2 after boot. schools diff for everyone. people who quit or think they will get by or dont study are out quickly. dropped and rerated. you will go to class more than i ever did when i was in college. theres 4 C schools so it depends on which one you get. Personally i like the job even tho i dont use anything i did in school for it

What's the difference between a normal IS and an ATF-IS?

BloodyPheonix · 01-23-2015, 06:07 PM

ATF has a guaranteed C school following A school if I recall correctly.

ProjectZERO · 01-23-2015, 06:11 PM

All IS's go through C school though.

BloodyPheonix · 01-24-2015, 09:25 AM

According to 1510-030 you trade two years for auto E2 after RTC and auto E4 after you finish A school and hit the TIR requirements for E4.

Ohh... alright. Is ATF something I needed to sign for at MEPS? Because I didn't really have a say in there. They literally told me I was going to be an IS and the 4 years was put down on my sheet. How can I do this ATF thing?

BloodyPheonix · 01-24-2015, 03:51 PM

Maybe talk to your recruiter to see if you can get it added to your existing contract.

ProjectZERO · 01-24-2015, 04:12 PM

Alright, thanks for the info.

gameingkine · 01-25-2015, 10:17 PM

Ive never seen a 4 year IS no one in my class or at my school was a 4 year IS so maybe you want to get that contract looked at again

Agrias · 01-25-2015, 10:26 PM

I don't think it actually says 6 years on the contract, there's another extention letter that goes with it right? I don't quite remember.

gameingkine · 01-25-2015, 10:46 PM

yeah it has 4 years on one page and 4 years +24 month extension on 2 other pages.

Actually keep your original contract never loose it. the ORM database is expose to hold all important documents in your naval career and mine was missing that 2 year extension. i had to get my mom to find me my original contract and scan it to me cause they were trying to say 6 year IS isnt a thing and i have to test for it..

Fricken CT commands man.

BloodyPheonix · 01-26-2015, 04:15 AM

I thought it was a four year with an extension page but I was unsure.
