A huge mile stone was celebrate today when CPT Snell, the 164th Theater Airfield Operations Group / Air Traffic Service Command S1 OIC got promoted to MAJ.
COL Polen pointed out the the key differences that lie within the two ranks, experience, and scope of responsibility: company grade officers focus on direct, tactical leadership of small units, whereas field grade officers handle larger formations, strategic planning, and broader systems-level thinking.
Following the promotion, COL Polen adminstered MAJ Snell the Oath of Office, renewing his personal commitment to the U.S. Constitution and the nation.
Sir, congratulations!
