Does the Creed of the Non-Commissioned Officer say “tactically and technically” or “technically and tactically"?

SSG (Join to see) It was originally written “tactically and technically” in 1973, published that way many times to include FM 22-600-20, The NCO Guide, November 1986.
It seems it remained “tactically and technically” until 2001 when the Army contracted out the creation of FM 7-22.7, The Army Noncommissioned Officer Guide. By intent or mistake, it seems the phrase was transposed in the sentence to I will strive to remain technically and tactically proficient.
It has been published that way officially since ...
Mostly......LOL, kind of...not really... BUT it has remained that way in the document that takes precedence.. The Field Manual
This idea was reinforced by an article in the NCO Journal, when they printed a story for the May 2010 edition, which correctly stated that a field manual has precedence over other forms of publication, in example DA pamphlets, DA certificates , Army produced "Guides" and of course anything locally published.

But those are just words from an old retired guy, so trust but verify before using those words in a discussion or correction.
If you research the key points above

You can find the cites needed to support your discussion (and prove I did not just make up the above..lol)

I’m on staff duty right now. This is the NCO Creed in our BN......it says “tactically and technically” so my BN SGM and BN CDR are wrong!?!

"Technically and tactically." If somebody gives you crap, show them this url. lol

It appears that technically it is technically and tactically, but if your CSM thinks it is the other way then you might want to tactfully go with tactically and technically, even if that is not technically correct. Or you could could wait for a tactically good time to tell him tactfully that technically it is technically first, but that may not be a tactically good career move, technically speaking.

I've always known it as technically then tactically.

But I have been known to get things wrong. For example, I always thought that later in the Creed it said "Officers of my unit will have maximum time to accomplish their duties, they will not have to accomplish mine, EVEN IF THEY WANT TO. But I think the last part of that sentence is incorrect.

TC 7-22.7 (FM 7-22.7) The Noncommissioned Officer Guide states it as "technically and tactically". Having said that, older versions of the creed reversed it. But as of the latest edition, its "technically and tactically".

You are technical before you can become tactical in the military.

This was found on the internet so it must be true.

The creed means nothing. No one lives by its words.
