Aviation Maintenance Administrationman 2nd Class Jonathan Webb, left, takes the Navy-wide advancement examination for first class petty officer, on the mess deck of future amphibious assault ship USS America (LHA 6). America is currently traveling through the U.S. Southern Command and U.S. 4th Fleet area of responsibility on its maiden transit, “America visits the Americas.” America is the first ship of its class, replacing the Tarawa-class of amphibious assault ships. As the next generation “big-deck” amphibious assault ship, America is optimized for aviation, capable of supporting current and future aircraft such as the MV-22 Osprey and F-35B Joint Strike Fighter. The ship is scheduled to be ceremoniously commissioned Oct. 11 in San Francisco. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 1st Class Jason M. Graham/Released)

Sailors who took their advancement exams in September could be sporting a new petty officer’s crow by the time they sit down for a Thanksgiving turkey.

Navy personnel officials will release the results of the fall active-duty E-4 through E-6 petty officer advancement results to commands at 9 a.m. EST on Nov. 24.

The public release to the web and media will happen exactly 24-hours later.

In the meantime, the quotas — the statistics by paygrade and rating on how many passed their tests, and of those, how many will advance — will be released Nov. 19.

Navy Times will be posting the quotas that day with analysis of what the results mean for sailors hoping to move up. Additionally, the names of all advancing sailors will be posted on the Navy Times website at 9 a.m. on Nov. 25. Return to navytimes.com over the next two weeks for complete advancement cycle coverage.
