Bill Hamilton Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Huge Congratulations on becoming a SNCO. That was the biggest pay jump I ever got when I made E-7. I’ve got another young bud in my car club who made MSgt and should sew it on during his latest sandbox deployment. He’s driving a very nicely modded ’06 Mustang GT now and I told him maybe he can afford a new Shelby when he gets back (LOL). Welcome to the top 18% of the A.F. enlisted force.

CSX4833 Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Congrats 1212, your service to this country is very much appreciated. My daughter is in the USAF and has been for 6 years and loves it. Take care and be safe. It's a violent world we live in but safer with service personnel like yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EL SHELBY Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 My Grandfather retired from the Air Force as a MSgt. He loves telling stories of how young Commissioned Officers would look puzzled when the enlisted would suddenly become very busy when he entered the room. Congratulations! BIG Achievement!

Blown Away Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Congrats!!! My brother recently picked up E-8 (1st SGT position) in the Army. He's still waiting for his number to be announced. Last time I talked with him there's only like 13 ahead of him. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0201212 Posted May 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 A big thanks to everyone that has posted. I still can't believe I made it, I didn't get to put a lot of time into studying because I started a new job in Aug of 2011 as an Air Force recruiter. Training in this job is slim to none so the learning curve is very steep. It took me about 5 months to get it down. Now I just have to wait and stay out of trouble for a while. Lol.

07SGT2134 Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Congratulations on making Master! Being a recruiter in this economy should be a sweet deal, best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Grey Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Line Number beats Passover any day. You should really enjoy your new position - there are a lot of young men and women that need respect and direction in their lives. Barb and I found that the Air Force can, and does, supply that and more to young folks. That is not to mean that the Marines, Army, Navy & Coast Guard don't, but it's your job to get to sign them up 1st. :happy feet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0201212 Posted May 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Congratulations on making Master! Being a recruiter in this economy should be a sweet deal, best of luck. The hard part in this economy is getting people that are qualified. Plenty knocking on the door. When it is like this the AF ups the bar!!! I can't complain now that I know the job. Just a hard road to get to this point. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I retired as an E-9, now its your turn to look out for the junior Enlisted. That is my plan! Hopefuly I will make it to CMSgt some day but in the mean time I will continue to be a firm but fair leader. I was also a Military Training Instructor (drill instructor) for 5 years of my career, so I hope to have my ducks in a row for my next two ranks.
