What is the longest for you? For me it is currently the rank of SSG, I held that rank for 5 years and 9 months.
I am curious to know how long it was for others, and maybe the reason they feel it was.

I was a SGT for just over 9 years because i didn't know when to shut op and drive on. I never did enough to get into trouble, but i sure pushed that line hard for a long time.
most of my problem was i felt the need to courteously point out the flaws and wrong doings of every superior i encountered.

I was a Specialist from 1995 to 2002. So, seven years. I was a medic in the PAARNG, assigned to a cav troop with two medic slots: a specialist and a sergeant. Since the sergeant wasn't going anywhere, I wasn't getting promoted. That actually contributed to my decision to get commissioned - it was easier to make 2LT in that situation than SGT!
I deployed a few years later with a 20-yr Specialist, though...no UCMJ, he just never got promoted.

In the USAF when I was in we had 2 E-4s. We had E-4 Sra and E-4 Sgt. I think I was a Sra for at least 32 months. I then completed my NCO class and became Sgt. Now on this sight I am demoted to Sra again. I guess Sra is my longest rank.

SrA Ronald Schwenk Jr
Well that would explain it. I have been to Pease AFB in N.H. and found out rank had changed. I served July 1980-March 1988. I understand it's changed but at the time I left the service I was SGT Ronald Schwenk regardless of change after I left. I was SRA apprx. 32 months went to NCO class and I became a Non commissioned Officer. Maybe there should be change here. I left as an NCO and this site lists me as a SRA. Thank you Sgt
