FY28 Promotion Board Deferment for Medical Department Officers
I don’t see any reason someone in Navy Medicine would want to request deferment, but I wanted to put the message out. Perhaps back in the day when some communities were overmanned and people were getting separated after failing to select twice, but that is not the situation we are in nowadays. I don’t see anyone (unless they are in trouble) getting kicked out, so you might as well be considered for promotion. That is my $0.02 anyway.
