Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 76680, member: 636"] Zimbabwe bumped 28 army guys from Major to Lieutenant Colonel at some ceremony in Harare, and the brass made it clear this was about future potential rather than just past performance. Brigadier General Christopher Rangwana told the newly promoted officers that President Mnangagwa picked them because he thinks they can handle bigger responsibilities going forward. The general reminded everyone that wearing Lieutenant Colonel bars means you need to think strategically when things get messy, keep your troops motivated, and mentor the next batch of leaders coming up through the ranks. One of the promoted officers, Lieutenant Colonel Princess Tshuma, said her tech background helped her stand out from the pack, while Lieutenant Colonel Lawrence West called the whole thing a major career milestone.
