In the US military, this is expressly prohibited ("Do not have the ratee
write or draft any portion of the report" is the verbiage from Air Force
Instruction 36-2406), but except for people who are out of favor, the
practice is universally ignored if the ratee is an officer or an NCO.
Granted, the supervisor is free to change anything in the report, and in
fact every Tom, Dick and Harriet in the chain of command makes whatever
changes the feel like making, so the effect of this violation is minimal.
