E-8 board results are out

The Marine Corps has posted the results of the latest first sergeant and master sergeant promotion board.

Check the list here to see who has been selected for promotion to E-8. The list was posted Wednesday in MARADMIN 066/18.

The results come after a rare delay due to “irregularities” reported during the initial board’s meeting. The first board was abruptly dismissed on Dec. 12 and later reconvened.

“Following an investigation into a potential irregularity during the conduct of the E-8 portion of the FY18 Sergeant Major through Master Sergeant promotion selection board, the Commandant of the Marine Corps directed the board be reconstituted with new members, who will meet in 2018 to conduct the E-8 portion,” Maj. Garron Garn, a spokesman for Manpower & Reserve Affairs, previously told Marine Corps Times.
