    Family members, friends and leaders pin new ranks of more than 200 Psychological Operations noncommissioned officers during a promotion ceremony larger than any other in Army Special Operations history, May 31, 2019. Following a review of the PSYOP rank structure, leaders identified a need for the PSYOP NCOs’ rank to reflect their extensive training and education, and to correspond with the level of responsibility they assume downrange. Army and ARSOF leaders at multiple echelons worked for more than a year to achieve the grade plate change that would later create additional positions for the newly promoted staff sergeants and sergeants first class to be promoted into. Selected Soldiers – some who have waited more than 10 years for this day – have met the time in grade and service requirements for promotion, and have completed the appropriate level of professional military education.
