Man, some of y'all made rank real quickly. A lot quicker than me.
During war time (Vietnam here) opportunities for advancement regularly arose because of the need to fill newly vacated positions. I made E-5 in just 13 months total service because I was next in line (and already trained) when the Fire Direction Chief completed his service. That position required an E-5.
