As the old saying goes, enlisted Soldiers do all the hard work, Officers get blamed for everything, but nobody EVER bothers the Chief...

At the end of the SPC-4 phase of life, the solider forms a pupa and metamorphoses into a WO.

LT Private RallyPoint Member Could this be the reason the Air Force does not acknowledge their existence? I believe there was a section in Project Blue Book dedicated to Warrant Officer sightings.

LT Private RallyPoint Member, thanks for making me laugh today. Some Warrant Officers take serious offense to certain stereotypes or labels against Warrant Officers, but I find it amusing. Times have changed and besides, I find formations to be very entertaining. I get to see Soldiers running up late to formation, I get to see Platoon Leaders who have no clue who is there or not, I get to see Platoon SGT's who can't perform basic math when reporting their numbers to the 1SG. I get to see the 1SG come out and talk for 15-20 minutes about the same stuff he said yesterday and the day before that. I get to see the CDR standing in the back basking in his own glory before a run. I get to see half of the formation fall out before actual PT starts because of profiles and appointments. I get to see a lot of stuff. I love formations.

Going out on a limb, I've met some live and was impressed and I am not easily impressed. Very elusive indeed!

Have you noticed an eerie similarity between Army CWO's (affectionately called Chief) and Navy Chief Petty Officers? I know I have!

Never say never. I went to a formation once. I didn't like it.
