There are a lot of Additional Duties that are for SGT and higher....while others are SSG and higher....some that are more specific like SSG to 1LT.

There are good reasons why SFC&#39;s get tapped for some specific and painfully difficult details, and your certainly not ready for those details. Read your unit policy letters and additional duties requirements. Ask your S3 NCO for a list of tasking duty NCO requirements. You&#39;ll learn something. Then volunteer. Get some experience and get some ink on your first evaluation report.

The First Sergeant saw my combat patch and that I was promotable and said good put him in charge of the motor pool. Which was one of my favorite jobs of my career. Within 6 months I was latterly promoted to corperal and enjoyed the cq duties , monthly post NCO meetings, and always was treated with the respect from fellow higher ranking NCOs.

It was a great experience because it allowed me to be responsible and gave me direct access to everyone within my battalion. Didn&#39;t matter what thier rank. From enlisted to officers. If a flight officer had to go to S.E.R.E. school, I was directly responsible for sending them thier. (Ever here of an officer try to bribe a LCPL not to go to S.E.R.E. School?) All pilots must go and complete the school if they wish to continue to fly. All I would say is, if you wish to make the military a career, don&#39;t listen to the norm. Volenteer for everything. You may think you like your mos, but truth be told....in order to lead troops, the more you learn about every field of expertise, the better equip you are in understanding how best to utilitize those in your command.

What I mean by that is, there are doubtless areas of weakness within your unit. Find that weakness, make it strong and take initiative. Collateral billets, at least in the marine corps, are usually dished by platoon commanders, so find that area, like tracking sl3 or teaching classes on armor identification to your unit that make your unit better.
