Did the army base in Schwabisch Gmund close?

What does a 3/2 army rating mean?

• i havea sister whos been in the army almost 4 years....shes home onleave and is upset she got a 3/2 rating....i dont know if its a pt test score or an overall evaluation...she is a few pounds overweigh and has had a cpl issues with pt...but my understanding is that she was doing well in the military...shes more upset at her superiors and she feels lack of respect...shes transferring so whatever it was it was given to her as she was signing off and leaving for the transfer...i did some research...and i dont really understand all the army lingo (and shes more mad than upset it seams.shes said the following things about it...."stupid isn't it? it's funny because the "bullets" contradict what the rating says, lol!! You can tell they copied and pasted from someone else's ",and "Ya know Im just hoping they don't treat any other NCO's like they did me. I didn't even get a goodbye formation....so sad. Makes me feel like they really didn't care :("...we arent very close so i didnt dig as to not anger her....but from my research, it could be promotion rating(if so is that good or bad)....also saw a few posts about a similar rating being given o someone who was discharged, as a side note she veery recently married a lower ranking soldier....so im concerned that maybe shes just going to the new base so they can be together(cause shes done right at 4 years active....and she hasnt mentioned reinlistment in about a year...), im trying not to start family drama as i said by pushing the subject....she has also stated that she doesnt want any of the family members to visit, as we havent met her husband who is at the new base(leaving base names out for obvious reasons)....and she wasnt stationed on the mainland....but where shes going is a base in the southeast...i have heard her talking to other military friends i assume from the base she left...and they seem to think or at least say that she got dealt an unfair rating...about all the info i have...but she is my sis...so if somethings bad, id like the chance to understand it and comfort her....at this point im afraid to even comment about it to her...thanks for any help...

• Answer:

  DA Form 2166-8 is the NCO Evaluation Report: http://armypubs.army.mil/eforms/pdf/A2166_8.pdf If you scroll to the bottom of the second page (Part V block c) you will notice Senior Rater evaluations 3/2 means she got a 3 (Successful) under Overall Performance and 2 (under potential) While she didn't get "maxed out" (as in a 1/1) it isn't disastrous or bad.
