ADVANCEMENT LISTS AT THE E-5 AND E-6 PAY GRADES. PROMULGATING THIS

AMPLE TIME TO PREPARE AND ESTABLISH ELIGIBILITY STARTING 16 NOV

THROUGHOUT THEIR RESPECTIVE AORS.
3. THE OCT 2008 RESERVE SERVICE WIDE EXAMINATION (RSWE) WILL BE

4. EFFECTIVE 16 NOV 2008 THROUGH 15 NOV 2009, COMMANDING OFFICERS
AND OFFICERS IN CHARGE (OINCS) MAY SUBMIT REQUESTS VIA CGMS
RECOMMENDING ELIGIBLE MBRS BE PLACED ON A RESERVE SUPPLEMENTAL
ELIGIBILITY LIST WHEN ALL APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS IDENTIFIED IN
REFS A, B, C, AND D ARE MET.  A MBR'S STANDING ON THE SUPPLEMENTAL
LIST IS BASED SOLELY ON THE DATE-TIME-GROUP (DTG) OF THE REQUESTING
MESSAGE. A COMMAND MAY SEND A MESSAGE AS SOON AS THE MBR MEETS
REQUIREMENTS AND ALL RELEVANT DATA IS VIEWABLE IN DIRECT ACCESS.
UPON RECEIPT OF A MESSAGE REQUESTING PLACEMENT ON THE LIST,
PERSONNEL SERVICE CENTER (PSC) ADVANCEMENTS (ADV) WILL PLACE THE
MBRS NAME IN THE NEXT POSITION ON THE SUPPLEMENTAL LIST FOR THAT
RATING PROVIDED ALL PREREQUISITES ARE MET. PSC (ADV) WILL SEND A
MESSAGE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT WITHIN FIVE (5) WORKING DAYS.  COMMANDS ARE

ADVANCEMENT LISTS WHO HAVE NOT ADVANCED WILL BE CARRIED TO THE NEW
SUPPLEMENTAL ADVANCEMENT LISTS IF THE RATE REMAINS ELIGIBLE. MBRS
ON A SUPPLEMENTAL LIST THAT WILL BE DISCONTINUED ARE REMINDED THAT
THEIR STATUS ON A SUPPLEMENTAL LIST DOES NOT GUARANTEE ADVANCEMENT
NOR DOES IT SIGNIFY AUTOMATIC ELIGIBILITY TO PARTICIPATE IN THE
NEXT RESERVE SERVICE WIDE EXAM (RSWE). MEMBERS NOT ADVANCED OFF THE
SUPPLEMENTAL LIST MUST STILL MEET ALL ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS FOR
THE RSWE AND SHOULD PLAN ON PARTICIPATING IN THE EXAM REGARDLESS OF
THEIR RANKING ON THE SUPPLEMENTAL LIST.

ELIGIBILITY LIST FOR THE OCT 2008 RESERVE SERVICE WIDE EXAM (RSWE)

SUPPLEMENTAL LISTS AND NUMBER OF VACANCIES. IF THE NUMBER OF NAMES
