Ranks in UNITAF

In UNITAF ranks represent a combination of experience in UNITAF and for certain ranks, responsibility and authority too. A promotion relates to changes in a person's rank or grade.

Definitions

• ATIU: Active time in unit is defined as the number of active months enlisted and can be found on a members dossier. This is a more accurate assessment of time in unit that number of days since enlistment as it accounts for breaks and inactivity.
• ATIG: Active time in grade is defined as the number of active months in their current rank.
• CATIG: Combined active time in grade is similar to ATIG but when used as a requirement one can combine multiple periods in a rank together to reach the CATIG requirement, this is useful in Billet based ranks such as Non-commissioned ranks to account for periods of inactivity and moving between enlisted and Non-commissioned ranks.
• GCIG: Good conduct in grade means that no official reprimands have been filed while the member has been in this current grade or rank. GCIG reduces the requirements for promotion to the next grade and then resets on promotion.
• ATF: Active total force is the number of active (Regular) members on the Total Force.
