Maj. Gen. Elvis S. Ligon, Di rector of Personnel Planning for the Deputy Chief of Staff, Personnel, told the personnel officers that for the first time in its history the Air Force would have a field grade officers' promotion system it could live with for the foreseeable future. i i . Revamped Promotion The maturing of the force which occurred after the 1954 Officer Grade Limitation Act dictated the revamped promotion plan. In other words, the Air Force, still a young; Service, wasn't able to provide promotion vacancies through normal attrition, mainly retire- ments. The program just announced covers only male officers. Policies' af fecting; component services and WAF officers are expected to be announced shortly. Under the revised program there will be two areas of consideration Sn both captains to major and major to lieutenant colonel groups a primary and a secondary, or below the zone area.' In the FY 00 program captains must have 13 years of Active Federal Commissioned Service in the case of Reserves, the same amount f Promotion List Service for Regulars, plus two years active to be eligible in the prizone for temporary major. mary However, they come under secondary zone eligibility with 10 years of active commissioned time and e, lieutenant colonel calls for 14 tatJnns' Act authorizations have years' commissioned service and baen reached. e. .

It is possible that the required AFCS or PLS for primary zone consideration may be reduced to years for captains by 1061 and or less for majors, according to USAF personnel Headquarters reduction A in AFCS planners. or PLS for primary zone consideration for majors is largely dependent upon a revision of the OGLA. The "Best Qualified" system will be used to promote to both grades. That is, the number to be promoted will be limited by a specific quota (80 per cent of those eligible) which is always less than the number eligible. All selections will be made centrally at Headquarters 12 17 USAF. Until now both Regulars and" Reserves became eligible for temporary promotion primarily ace.
