I have a question that I've got mixed answers for from nco's in my co.

 I am a SPC(P) team leader, I have points and will get pinned in may.... but anyways here is the question.

say there are two soldiers, both are promotable(lets just say e4(P)) and hold the same leadership position. Soldier "Alpha" made time in rank say 1 month before soldier"bravo" did(this being promoted from e3 to e4). However, soldier "bravo" was boarded and given promotable status a month before the other did. When both soldiers are at promotable status does the succession of rank still stand with the soldier of an earlier date of rank or with the earlier P status?

that was probably confusing. I'm pretty sure I know the answer and that when all things being equal, duty position, rank and promotion status, that it comes down to date of rank, but want confirmation that my support channel cant give me.

not that it really matters in scheme of things but just curious. FYI I am the one with date of rank, with a year less service.... and I made points, well I will a i'm at pretty comfortable stance compared to aprils points... and hes shy of aprils still.
