The Sergeants Major of the Army
The Sergeants Major of the Army adds to the growing literature on the Army's Noncommissioned Officer Corps, which has always stood proudly in the front ranks to serve the nation in war and peace. Daniel K. Elder and his fellow contributors tell two stories, an institutional one and a personal one. In the first part of the book they discuss the origin and growth of the Office of the Sergeant Major of the Army, explaining why someone saw a need for such an office and identifying who supported it in its infancy, who made it work, and why it has succeeded as well as it has. In the second part they introduce photographic portraits and biographical vignettes on the soldiers who have occupied this most important post over the past forty years, providing insights into their character, motivations, goals, and accomplishments. The career and life stories of the SMAs are both inspirational and instructive, giving today's soldiers a useful perspective as the Army once again endeavors to transform itself into an even more effective institution.
Educating Noncommissioned Officers
Throughout history, training noncommissioned officers of the United States Army had been accomplished using on-the-job training (OJT) in the unit, and many believed that is where it should stay. Training noncommissioned officers was conducted by officers in the regiment and was the commanding officer's responsibility. It was accepted that unit training was the best means of developing noncommissioned officers and potential noncommissioned officers. It was not until the post-World War II era that NCO training was conducted outside the unit at specially designed schools and academies. The first Sergeant Major of the Army, William O. Wooldridge, noted that in those days a soldier had to provide for his own education and training. "I went to night school. There were no requirements to attend school if you didn't want to. Now you must get training, or you don't get promoted."
NCO School
This is the story of the Vietnam era Noncommissioned Officer Candidate Course (NCOCC), and it chronicles the author's research and deep investigation into a unique program that many attendees mostly knew as "NCO School." On June 22, 1967, the Chief of Staff of the Army General Harold K. Johnson approved the NCOCC plan, and it took 3 additional months for it to be initiated. On September 5, 1967, the first class reported to the Infantry School at Fort Benning, Georgia, and it signaled the beginning of an almost five year-long new method to create U.S. Army Sergeants, trained and ready for combat.
