Correcting records sooner rather than later makes it much easier to advance especially if you are at the current command where the mistake happened. Keeping your uniform in top shape lets everyone know you are a cut above the rest. And keeping in shape should be a constant endeavor for your career and your health. Seeking out the best PCS orders for your career and enjoyment should start early with a contact to your Detailer.
