Yes. “Acting” has a specific meaning. It means when he never met the requirements for the rank of CSM, he needed to stop “acting” as though he could claim that rank.Incorrect. He was provisionally promoted and occupied the CSM billet, he was also paid as an E-9.
If he was in an "Acting" status, which has a specific meaning, he would have retrained his previous rank and pay grade. In other words he would have been designated "First Sergeant" and remained an E-8.
However he was provisionally promoted (and paid) to the rank of Command Sergeant Major at paygrade E-9.

Again your Swiftboating is weakYour slogans are a joke. Why perpetuate the Walz fraud unless it’s to placate your feelings?
Your silly slogans are laughable.Again your Swiftboating is weak
Especially when your candidate insults POWs, the Medal of Honor, Gold Star families and faked Bone Spurs to avoid the draft
Walz never met the requirements for a CSM rank. Too bad if that hurts your feelings.He wasn't "acting". In the military "acting" means you keep your current pay grade and rank, however you are designated to fill a function.
That is not the case with Walz, he was actually promoted to Command Sergeant Major and pay grade E-9. Such promotion was provisional, which is different than "acting". The provisions were TIG (Time in Grade) and completion of the CSM Academy to retire as an E-9.
He didn't meet the TIG requirement, so retired for benefits purposes as an E-8. The Academy is actually irrelevant since he didn't meet TIG.
So yes, Walz was an E-9 and actually promoted to Command Sergeant Major. He was not in an "acting" status. If he hadn't met the requirements for promotion to CSM he wouldn't have been promoted. Which has nothing to do with reversion to E-8 for benefits.
