    412th Test Wing   

    The Air Force selected more than 100 teammates stationed at Edwards Air Force Base for promotion to the ranks of master sergeant and technical sergeant. The lists represent a significant career milestone for junior and senior noncommissioned officers across various specialties.

    The selection process for both ranks is highly competitive, based on weighted factors including time in service, time in grade, performance reports, professional military education and decorations. This year's selection rates underscore the Air Force's commitment to promoting the most qualified and dedicated SNCOs and NCOs to critical leadership and technical positions.

    The newly promoted master sergeants celebrated their achievement on June 12.
