Thirty-eight Citizen-Airmen of the Michigan Air National Guard’s 127th Wing were recognized in February for their promotion to the senior noncommissioned officer corps during an induction ceremony at Selfridge Air National Guard Base, Feb. 1, 2025.
The Airmen were all promoted to the rank of master sergeant in 2024, placing them among the senior tier of the enlisted force of the Air Force.
Advancement to the rank of master sergeant means that the words found in the Air Force creed of “wingman, leader, warrior,” mean a little bit more, said Chief Master Sgt. Bruce Hedrick, command chief master sergeant of the 127th Wing.
“Becoming a senior NCO means that the job is not done. In fact, we need your leadership more than ever and, more importantly, your Airmen need it,” Hedrick said.
During the ceremony, each of the newly-minted master sergeants were awarded a coin from the Top III Council and a certificate of appreciation.
“We look to these senior NCOs to continue to make a difference not only in their individual shops, but across the wing and the Air Force as a whole,” said Master Sgt. Jabett Glenn, who served as master of ceremonies at the ceremony.
