Going through my apps, I did my best to estimate landings. There is no absolute accurate assessment, unless you've been meticulous enough over your career to keep a personal log of all your military time.

Lastly, as long as you have a justified method of breaking down your time, and can explain it logically in an interview you should be good. Just know what that is when it comes up.
Excellent advice.

I broke mine down by PCS and included major jobs/schools which might look good.

Most hiring depts have current/former mil folks who know what to look for as far as "career progression". They want to hire the folks who performed well-- highlight that.

Good luck!
