The U.S. Air Force has selected 12,671 senior airmen for promotion to staff sergeant, according to servicewide promotion results reported by multiple outlets.
The selection rate is nearly 32%, and both reports note that it is lower than the previous year’s promotion cycle. The figure reflects the number of airmen chosen in this promotion selection window rather than the total eligible population.
Air Force Times and Military Times describe the same headline outcomes—number selected and the approximate selection percentage—while providing limited additional detail beyond the comparison with the prior cycle.
