Tommy seems to have some sort of "fixture" on NCO's  (Staff, Tech,

taken and passed skill level tests in what ever skill you are assigned
to manage.

There's also a time-in-grade requirement. Tommy was only in 4 years. No
way he ever made it to even an E3, and even that's doubtful given his
demonstrated incompetence.

Based on Tommy's comments I would guess he had a skill lever rating of
"3" which would indicate that he had finished a technical school and
so was, in civilian term been appointed an "apprentice" skill level.
Next step up would be a "5 level" indicating that one had "journeyman"
skills and the more senior rank would be a "7 level"
skill level, a "master", as high as you can go.

    Explain to us what you know about the service. It is automatic promotion from Airman Basic to A3C when you graduate basic training and automatic promotion when you graduate tech sxhool. What is this time in grade BS that you don't know anything about? You were too busy slithering around to know anything about the service,

oh, my....You've never heard of time-in-grade?
https://airforce.fastport.com/AF/advancement/Database?p%5BProfileID%5D=129&p%5Bv
     Airman Basic (E-1) is eligible for promotion to Airman (E-2) with six months' time-in-grade.
     E-2 is eligible for promotion to Airman First Class (E-3) with 10 months' time-in-grade.
     E-3 is eligible for promotion to Senior Airman (E-4) within 18 to 24 months' time-in-grade (depending on earlier promotions).
Seems like Johnny may be right, you never _were_ in the airforce.
