In the US Army, when I was in, promotion to NCO often led to one being moved to a different part of the unit -- sometimes as little a move as being put into a different platoon within a company. Even without promotions, officers (especially junior officers) tended to be put into different slots within a battalion or brigade during their assignment at a unit.
