What makes a strong 12B NCOER?

Combat engineer NCO evaluations should reflect breaching proficiency, demolitions accuracy, route clearance outcomes, and the ability to enable maneuver under operational conditions. Strong 12B bullets reference specific missions executed, obstacles cleared, demolitions placed, and mobility outcomes. Raters should cite specific exercises, rotations, and operational outcomes rather than generic engineer language.
