Where does it say that a narcotics NCO for any given company must be a SSG or higher (I've looked in 40-3, 40-61, and 190-51)?

It may only be unit policy..it may only be a unit commanders choice and decision.

Go look at your CIP inspection sheet for that area, It will likely have a check list question relative.

Is there an Officer or NCO in the rank of , or higher appointed on order to do monthly narcotics inventory?
Reference AR: 1234.987
or
Were monthly inventories done and recored by an officer E13 or higher?
Reference DA PAM: 098.123
or
IAW post policy were month inventories done by the appointed person of appropriate rank forwarded to the Post medical officer?
Reference CG policy #123

Then follow up on the cited references.

If this is someone TELLING you the Narcotics NCO must be of grade XYZ or above, the onus is on them to cite the reg requiring that.
