AMEDD Direct Commission Course (DCC) Practice Exam

Time In Service (TIS) measures what?

Total years of service in the Army Time in rank Time since last promotion Total months of service

Correct Answer:

Total months of service

Explanation:

Time In Service is the total duration a service member has spent in the Army from the date of enlistment to the present. It tracks the entire period of active service and is used for things like pay, promotions, and eligibility rules. In practice, this measure is expressed in months, since that unit cleanly accounts for the full span of service and can be converted to years as needed. It isn’t about how long you’ve held your current rank (time in rank) or how long since your last promotion (time since last promotion); those are separate measurements.
