SGT 31B NCOER Bullets: 6 Examples at MP Team Leader Scope

A SGT 31B leads an MP team through two different jobs at once: law and order on the installation and combat support in the field. The NCOER should quantify both, patrols and reports on one side, security and mobility support missions on the other.

// 01What makes a SGT 31B NCOER different

The MP team leader’s evidence splits across the dual mission and both halves are countable: law enforcement patrols led and incident reports written to standard on the police side; area security, mobility support, and detention operations tasks certified on the field side. Add weapons qualification for a team that carries every day, use-of-force training currency, and certification results at MP-specific evaluations, and the raw material for a strong report is all there.

The SGT form is DA Form 2166-9-1, two boxes only (DA PAM 623-3 ¶3-6a). Below, tier language calibrates sentence strength rather than a box, in the same ¶3-11a terms that take over at SSG, where the patrol supervisor and squad leader jobs bring the four-box form.

// 02Tier calibration for a 31B MP team leader

For an MP team: patrols and reports to standard is Met (¶3-11a(2)); report quality or certification results that measurably climbed through this NCO’s drills is Exceeded strength (¶3-11a(3)); peer-best evaluation scores or team procedures the company adopted reach Far Exceeded strength (¶3-11a(4)). Verbatim text in the tier explainer.

// 03Met-tier SGT 31B bullets

Met: ¶3-11a(2) · Achieves

o led 3-Soldier MP team through 120 plus law enforcement patrols and 2 field rotations; every incident report accepted without correction

Why this reads as Met: patrols covered and reports right the first time is the team leader’s standard met and enforced, ¶3-11a(2). The zero-correction record is a quiet, checkable fact worth more than an adjective.

Met: ¶3-11a(2) · Character

o enforced use-of-force and weapons safety through a year of armed duty; zero unauthorized force incidents, zero weapons violations

Why this reads as Met: an armed team that stayed disciplined all year is the MOS’s non-negotiable baseline. Enforcing that standard for those in his charge is the exact language of ¶3-11a(2), and it belongs on the report at that tier.

// 04SGT 31B bullets at Exceeded strength

Exceeded-strength: ¶3-11a(3) · Develops

o built weekly report-writing and scenario drills; team incident reports used 3 times as the company training example

Why this reads at Exceeded strength: recurring drills nobody ordered, with the team’s output selected as the example for the company three times. Disciplined initiative plus external, repeat recognition is ¶3-11a(3) with witnesses.

Exceeded-strength: ¶3-11a(3) · Achieves

o cut team response time to priority calls 30% by rebuilding patrol distribution; verified across 2 quarters of blotter data

Why this reads at Exceeded strength: a measured response-time delta on the mission the installation feels, produced by a plan this NCO rebuilt. Two quarters of blotter data makes it a trend, not a good week.

// 05SGT 31B bullets at Far Exceeded strength

Far Exceeded-strength: ¶3-11a(4) · Leads

o led top-scored MP team of 12 at the external law and order evaluation; selected ahead of 4 senior teams to train visiting units

Why this reads at Far Exceeded strength: best of 12 with the denominator is ¶3-11a(4)’s best of the upper third made checkable, and the selection over senior teams is the chain acting on that ranking.

Far Exceeded-strength: ¶3-11a(4) · Intellect

o authored a traffic accident investigation quick-reference; adopted by all 4 platoons, report kickbacks fell 70% in one quarter

Why this reads at Far Exceeded strength: a company-wide problem diagnosed from the data, an artifact built to fix it, adoption across every platoon, and a measured 70% drop. Enduring effect beyond his own team is what lifts it over (3).

// 06Common mistakes on SGT 31B NCOERs

Writing only one half of the dual mission. A report that is all blotter or all field problem sells half the MOS. The strongest MP drafts pair a law enforcement fact with a combat support fact and let the range show.

Case details in the bullet. Investigations and incidents carry privacy and legal weight. The NCOER counts and grades them, reports accepted, evaluations passed, response times, without narrating any case.

Wasting lines on tier adjectives. DA Form 2166-9-1 has no Exceeded box, so superlatives buy nothing. Spend the line on the evaluation score and the blotter trend; those survive to the board.

// 07The 31B bullet BulletForge will not write

Feed the generator a thin MP team leader input and ask for the top tier, and it refuses instead of inflating. The refusal names what is missing and burns no quota.

The input a rater actually types

“outstanding MP, owns his sector, always professional” · requested tier: Far Exceeded strength

What BulletForge answers instead of writing it

This input does not support FAR EXCEEDED strength. Professionalism is the entry standard for an armed NCO, not a ¶3-11a(4) marker. What did the team score, against how many teams, at which evaluation? What happened to response times or report acceptance in this sector? What did the company adopt from this team? One checkable fact or the generator writes the honest tier. The refusal costs no quota.
