The proper term for the ball atop a flagpole is a “truck”. This author misidentifies it as a finial which is the ball atop sign posts. This author clearly identifies themselves as an idiot and sergeant major bait in a soldier of the year board.

Thank you CW3 Michael Clifford. I agree the author blew that. I remember helping some of the Airmen get ready for different boards where that question would often arise.
