For starters it means he will be 'on call' 24/7, 365. For those who have no idea what a 1st Sgt does (from wikipedia- who explains it best): In the United States Air Force, First Sergeant is not a rank, but a special duty held by the senior enlisted advisor of a military unit who reports directly to the unit commander. This billet is held by individuals of pay grades E-7 through E-9 (Master Sergeant, Senior Master Sergeant and Chief Master Sergeant), and is denoted on the rank insignia by a lozenge (known colloquially as a "diamond"). Often referred to as the "first shirt", or "shirt", the first sergeant is responsible for the morale, welfare, and conduct of all the enlisted members in a squadron and is the chief adviser to the squadron commander concerning the enlisted force. Most units have a master sergeant in this position, while larger units use senior master sergeants and chief master sergeants as first sergeants.


So where should we move then? Well South Dakota looks good, and Colorado looks good too. Which ever,I think we'll be happy. We've looked at so many houses in each state, and my goodness we'd get a huge house for the same cost here for one half as big. I think I might like moving. :D
Jaesus.
"You will address me as first sergeant"
ReplyDelete"But I've already had a first sergeant."
Haha. Love that movie.
Colorado and South Dakota are gorgeous. And I'm sure the kids would love love the snow!
