The 482nd Fighter Wing held a Senior Noncommissioned Officer Induction Ceremony here for master sergeants at the Falcon's Nest Club August 6.
The Senior NCO Induction Ceremony is a long-standing tradition within the Air Force to recognize the achievement of reaching the rank of master sergeant. Being promoted to the Senior NCO rank is one of the biggest highlights in an enlisted members career.
Inductees transitioned from technical experts and first-line supervisors of their field to operational leaders. They are skilled in merging subordinates’ talents, skills, and resources with other teams’ functions to most effectively accomplish the mission. These Senior NCOs must promote the highest standards of conduct, appearance and performance.
Inductees were joined by their leadership, fellow Senior NCOs, and their families for a night of legacy, honor and celebration.
Chief Master Sgt. James Loper, 920th Rescue Wing Command Chief, Patrick Space Force Base, Florida, served as the guest speaker.
"What a top notch event to honor our newest SNCOs," said Chief Master Sgt. Jeremy Allen, 482nd Fighter Wing Command Chief. "I could not be more proud of the team that planned and executed the induction ceremony. To our newest master sergeants, continue your journey into servant leadership and remember, iron sharpens iron."
