| The fire is everything... | Quote:
 We need at least one year at a sergeant school and one year as a sergeant to reach 2Lt. (18 years min to attend Sgt. school) And several have also served one year as a private before they apply to the school. You can't compare a Norwegian sergeant to an American one. When you're a sergeant here you're still under education, and after one year as a sgt you automatically become 2Lt. 5 years as a 2Lt makes you a 1Lt, and 5-14 years a 1Lt before you reach Capt.. This is my 3rd years as a 1Lt, so i have to wait at least 2 years before I can be promoted to Capt.. So we have to climb the ranks here, you can't get promoted faster.. (but you can serve temporary on rank higher than your real one for one year at the time if the job your doing demands that rank. example: Platoon commander 1Lt, Company Commander Capt etc..) | |
