  37. Clear or Unclear? • “Read this carefully…the rules force me to make him only a MP. He is an EP! He is rated against another O-X who I anticipate will be promoted. Joe’s turn is next. Joe would truly be number one in any other setting.” • “One of my top 5 MPs.” • “Ranked 1 of 10 hand-picked officers.” • “He has my strongest endorsement and recommendation for command.
