The Enlisted Performance Report (EPR) is one of the most important documents in an enlisted member's career. This form has long-standing impacts during and after his or her military service. The final rank on the DD Form 214, Discharge Papers and Separation Documents, is largely based on the information provided in his or her evaluations.    

Evaluations help make important personnel decisions, such as promotion consideration, career opportunities, retraining, and reenlistments. With the significant weight EPRs have in your career and beyond, I wrote Stripes: An Airman’s Bullet Writing (and Career Management) Guide to help you lay a solid foundation for your career. I will help you map out your career expectations and goals, outline specific bullet writing mechanics, and write great EPRs line-by-line. I also provide a list of over two thousand action verbs.

**UPDATE: This book has been updated to provide several important updates since its original release. I have expanded several discussions and topics throughout the book and added a chapter about promotion board scoring.
