Elimination of Physical Mailing of Officer Promotion Orders: In an effort to minimize costs and utilize existing technology, effective Nov. 1, the ARPC Promotion Board Eligibility Division eliminated the mailing out of hard copy promotion orders. Currently members are able to request copies of orders by logging into myPers and utilizing the instructions listed below. Previous orders can still be pulled utilizing Personnel Records Display Application (PRDA) in myPers and current orders will be available in PRDA 45-60 days after promotion effective date.

This policy eliminates the need of mailing paper copies and reduces money spent on a redundant process. Additionally, for security reasons, orders will not be emailed to personal email addresses and members must ensure that they have access to a .mil account.

Instructions to the field:
