Johnny Punani Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 That is a E-7 but the Diamond denotes First Sgt instead of Master Sgt. if I'm not mistaken. First Sargent is not a rank in the Air Force. Is is a specialty position within the Master Sargent rankings (MSgt, SMSgt, and CMSgt ranks). First Shirts (Air Force term for First Sargents) serve as the liaison between the commander (squadron, group, wing) and the the enlisted personnel under his command. They are responsible for the moral, welfare, conduct, etc of the enlisted personnel. Basically, they are the ones who come and bail you out of jail.

ZoEd Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 You're right, LOD... Johnny P and LOD hit the nail on the head. I love my job; Airmen are our most valuable resource and taking care of them is the best job ever. It can be a pain in the butt, for example I'm on my way to work now to yell at a couple idiots, but the good out weighs the bad. I get to go TDY next month to Alaska and will hopefully get a chance to ride backseat in an F15. It has it's perks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chachie Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 US Navy, 1986-1992. I served onboard USS Iowa, Battleship 61. In April of '89 the 2nd 16" turret exploded during training exercises off Vieques Island, killing 47 of my shipmates. I attended the 20 yr Memorial Service for them 6 weeks ago in Norfolk.

Lets get a few things straight. The Marines are not a part of the Navy. The Marines are a department of the Navy. The Mens Department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
