The Air Force on Monday released the list of 530 airmen who were selected for promotion to chief master sergeant<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With 2,529 senior master sergeants who were eligible for promotion, that resulted in a selection rate of 20.96 percent, the Air Force Personnel Center said in a release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was the first time the E-9 promotion process<\/a> was conducted without using the Weighted Airman Promotion System test<\/a>, known as the promotion fitness exam, or considering points for decorations. In early February, the Air Force announced that all senior noncommissioned officer promotion boards would now focus only on performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Board members scored records both ways \u2014 with the current score process, as well as reviewing the last five years of evaluations and all awards and decorations, AFPC said.<\/p>\n\n\n\t
