This section requires joint-duty officer qualifications to support promotion rates comparable to those of officers serving on service headquarters staffs. It separately covers Joint Staff officers and other joint-qualified officers.

The Secretary of Defense must ensure that qualifications for officers assigned to joint-duty assignments are arranged so that: (1) officers serving or having served on the Joint Staff, considered as a group, are expected to be promoted to the next grade at a rate no lower than officers of the same armed force, grade, and competitive category serving or having served on their armed force’s headquarters staff; and (2) officers who are majors or higher, or Navy lieutenant commanders or higher, and who are designated joint qualified, considered as a group, are expected to be promoted to the next grade at a rate no lower than all officers of the same armed force, grade, and competitive category.
