Who drafts the initial DA Form 2166-9-1A, NCOER Support Form?

• A. The rater
• B. The senior rater
• C. The rated NCO
• D. A personnel clerk

Answer: (C)

The NCO being evaluated drafts the initial NCO Evaluation Support Form. This form is meant to capture the rated NCO’s own duties, responsibilities, accomplishments, and self-assessment to give the rater a clear starting point for the official evaluation. The rater will then use this input to write the formal NCOER, with the senior rater providing their perspective later. A personnel clerk may assist with processing, but the content is initiated by the rated NCO.
