So what? I asked my Nephew who IS still IN the US Air Force in his 21st year.
He's a Colonel and he laughed and said "what does it matter"?
Everything is still going along exactly as it would be if they were given these promotions.
Are you saying that they can't get the same work done as a unit if Bill Thompson is only a Lt Col, vs. if he was a Colonel?
This is simply horseshit masquerading as a problem that the Democrats are exploiting for political purposes.
Now then, let's get back to my question to you which you avoided.
What do you think of the Anti-semitic NY Times lying about Israel, saying that Israel bombed the Hospital in Gaza and lied saying that Israel caused the deaths of 500 when it wasn't even 50 people killed in the parking lot?
Are you going to make excuses for the Anti-semitic NY Times, just as you made excuses for the Anti-semitic Ilhan Omar?
Do you want to speak about the Democrat's despicable anti-semitism?

Actually, it's the pentagon that has been saying it, along with Republican senators:
"The Pentagon and lawmakers opposed to Tuberville's actions say the holds create a trickle-down effect that is hurting military readiness, preventing scores of officers from moving to new jobs, either as nominees or staff members. They argue that less experienced leaders are being forced to step in."
"Tuberville has faced opposition from his side of the aisle, as well."
"McConnell said in May that he opposes Tuberville’s blockade. And several Republican senators said this week that they were hoping to find a way to persuade the senator to drop the holds."
“I think all of us are concerned — we want to get these key positions filled,” said South Dakota Sen. John Thune, the No. 2 Senate Republican."

I guess your nephew who is a colonel in the air force doesn't a rat's ass what the Pentagon thinks, huh?
