Well you would have to know how fast it takes to be promoted to each rank. From WO1 to CW2 is takes 2 years. Then you get your first look for CW3 after being CW2 for 4 years I believe. So to make CW3 it would take a total of 6 years. Then First look to CW4 would be 5 years after making CW3 so the fastest would be around 10-11 years to make CW4. Realisticly it would take around an average of 14 years from the day you get pinned WO1 to make CW4! Hope this helps! CW5 would be another 5 years so around 18-20 years in service would get your from WO1 to CW5.
