Leader’s Corner - Remarks from LTC Travis Carpenter, Deputy G1
ISSUE 11 – October 2019
Personnel management is a thankless job. No one ever stops the HR
professional in the hall and congratulates them for their superb
maintenance of the units family care plans, or the constant hound-
dogging of Leaders and Soldiers for medical exams or medical
paperwork. No one likes to be nagged about vaccines and OERs.
Personnel management rarely takes the focus of the unit
commander's OER support form. Training is sexy, not personnel
management. Training is the sword in a warriors' hand; good training
is the sharp edge to that sword. Training is where the metal meets the
meat. Being physically and mentally fit enough to carry the fight to the
enemy and win America's wars is what the Army is charged with
doing; we fight and win wars.
The charge that we, the HR professionals, have been given, is to keep
Warriors ready to wield the sword. You cannot train a vacancy. A non-
deployable Solider cannot fight and win America's wars. To make this
happen, I ask you to sort out the big rocks from the small rocks for
your commanders. Understand that they are trying to balance the
Sword and the Warrior. Teach, coach, and mentor from the bottom up,
and the top down. Teach them the ins and outs of the big rocks
(Strength and Readiness), coach them in ways to execute the small
rocks without interfering with training and equipment readiness tasks.
Mentor your young NCOs on how to do the same.
Personnel management is a thankless job, but it is THE MOST
IMPORTANT job. Without Soldiers available to deploy, training and
equipment is worthless. Be the advocate, be a professional, and do
everything you can to make personnel readiness a priority in your unit.

Next PSNCO Teleconference: 25 SEP/ 30 OCT/ 27 NOV
What’s going on: The FY20 EPS Boarded List is on the G1 GKO page, under the G1
EPS Rosters link. Verify that all Soldiers that should have been boarded appear on the
list. If there are any discrepancies contact PSB Enlisted Branch
Updates:
The Enlisted Promotion List (EPL) will publish on 7 October 2019. However, due
to IPPS-A implementation the new EPL will not be actively worked until
November.
NGB 22s continue to be challenging. There are 262 in progress at the unit level,
and 325 total needing completed.
National topics: IPPS-A is set to come online for Kentucky on in October. Make sure
you complete the required training in order to be granted permissions.
Get your DA Photo! There continues to be a large number of Soldiers that have not updated their DA Photo in accordance with AR 640-30. If you receive an award of an Army Commendation or above, get a new photo. Every promotion from First Lieutenant and above; Chief Warrant Officer 2 and above; and Staff Sergeant and above requires a new photo. Officers and NCOs require a new DA Photo at a minimum of every fifth year. It is alarming the number of DA Photos show Soldiers in the Class A Army Green Service uniform. If you require a DA Photo and you are still in the Army Green Service uniform, get a new photo as soon as possible.

Education & Incentives
KHEAA is transitioning to a new program for paying State Tuition Assistance
which has caused a delay in payments. There is nothing required for the Soldier
or the unit to do, the payment will be made once the new system is on line. The
schools are fully aware of the delay and we have scrubs the accounts at state to
ensure proper payments are made. Please contact the Education NCOIC
[email protected] if you have any questions.
NGB’s new SRIP policy for Soldiers with less than 8 years and has an ETS date
no later than 31 Dec 2019 to extend for the $20,000 lump sum incentive is now in
GIMS. Please contact the Education NCOIC [email protected] if you
have any questions.
Soldiers who are receiving or about to receive the GI Bill will be glad to hear that
there has been a raise in the monthly rate, for example CH 1606 from $384 to
$392. Should a Soldier forget to file they can file for back pay at the rate for that
period, for any assistance Contact SSG Boone, our State GI Bill Manager to fix
We are still finding payments that did not transmit from GIMS to DFAS from a
coding error. We have to resubmit these payments to NGB for submittal to
DFAS, this is the only way to correct the error and will cause the time line to start
over. Please contact the Education NCOIC [email protected] if you
have any questions.

Influenza (flu) is a contagious disease that can be serious.

CDC urges you to take the following actions to protect yourself and others from the flu. The Army Force Health protection requires every Soldier to include members of RSP are also vaccinated. We do not have delivery date of our influenza vaccinations but expect to see something come out soon in the FRAGO. Most of the time flu activity begins around December and can last through May. Some tips to keep you healthy throughout the season. Get yourself and your family vaccinated! A yearly flu vaccine is the first and most important step in protecting against flu viruses. Protect Yourself. Protect Your Family. Get Vaccinated. Stop the spread Take every day preventative actions to help stop the spread of flu viruses! Avoid close contact with sick people, avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth, cover your coughs and sneezes, wash your hands often (with soap and water).
Welcome to Fall! The last several months has ushered in a lot of change for the KYARNG
Medical Community. As of 01 October 2019, Health Services and KY Medical Detachment will

improved support for the KY ARNG. The week of 01-04 October all Health Services personnel
