Do your duties change when going from a Staff Sgt. to Sgt. first class?

Normaly yes, however, I have been doing the job of a Sergeant First Class for a few years now. The roll of a SFC is Platoon Sergeant, a title that I have been doing for the better half of a decade since I was a Sergeant (Yesterday I was a Staff Sergeant, today I am a SFC).

Thanks for asking,
Ray

Mike,
Funny you should say that, alot of the guys came to me and told me I needed to buy 7 cases of beer because I made E-7...

I told them I would buy 7 cases of soda, I don't drink beer...lol. They weren't so excited to party after that.

I wonder if I had a party how many coin buddies would show up :D

I tell you what, if I do make it to that show in March (Or is it May) I'll buy a round for everyone :D

Hopefully I make it :D

Thanks Blacksheep :D

The promotion sure did come through, took long enough didn't it? Thankfully we no longer use pinned stripes and my wife is the one that actually pinned me :D

There were about 60-80 people there for the ceremony that all shook my hand... my hand and fore arm were through after that.

We did bring a camera, however, the formation did not go as planned and it was held 30 minutes early... the camera was in the car during the pinning.

Oh well, at least the rank is on my chest now.

Hopefully not for awhile if at all :D For the longest time I wanted to be a 1SG, but after this unit, I figured out that all the 1SG is a glorified baby sitter. I like to be with the troops, down in the trenches doing the dirty work.

:D

I hear ya bro. Hopefully you get that wish and get to stay being a soldier's soldier without getting bogged down in the admin part of the unit. as a cop my brother loved being on the streets. He applied for a Lt. position and got it and now he rarely sees the outside of his office and longs for the days back on the streets catching the bad guys. It was an excellent career move as far as future advancement goes and a nice pay increase but took all the fun out of the job.

 

Hopefully when he retires he will be happy he made the choice since his pension will be much better than had he stayed a Sgt.
