Why are you proud to be a 92G?

Let's share some good experiences. I'm proud to be a 92G because of our versatility in todays Army. After preparing meals for Soldiers; we go and train beside them and do it all over again daily. As 92G's we earn many accolades outside of our MOS as well. Share your moments

Well an Army runs on its stomach. I was proud of everything I did during deployments. Post Army the transition couldn't of been better. Right off the bat picked up a great paying job in management working in a prison kitchen which lead to a better job working in a federal prison kitchen. Absolutely happy with everything I did and wouldn't of changed a thing.

SSG Private RallyPoint Member SSG I enjoy cooking for my troops. Its a sense of gratification and feels like you are doing your part in the Army and helping your soldiers complete their mission. Being 1 for over 19 years and I wouldn't change it for anything!!!

I am proud to be a 92G because it's a family. I have always had a special bond with fellow cooks and they always tend to help out the next guy. We can get away with a lot more than the guys at the company because we don't work at the company and the early shift (0530-1330) gives me all the time in the world to get my work in and still manage my family care plan !!!

Like SPC Johnson said, an Army runs on its stomach. Nothing made me happier on deployment than giving out cases of Red Bull and Gaterade to grunts going out on convoys. 2 cans my sainted aunt....

SSG,

So many things to be proud of as a 92G! I can't name them all but, cooking and providing some great meals to the warfighter is the most memorable moment for me. Seeing them eat a meal that we've prepared and actually enjoying it is where it's at!

As a Food Service Specialist (Culinarian) we have some of the best Special Programs in the Military. From providing VIP Service on a Gulfstream to Cooking for the POTUS himself...to name a few. We are by far from the bottom of the food chain.

We must embrace this profession that we picked for ourselves. Have a sense of pride in all that we do and will do for the warfighter. Could be a hell of a lot worst.

I love my job because it gives us a chance to actually put time and dedication into a product and it helps us better connect with other soldiers who enjoy the astounding meals were able to serve daily

Thanks to the ORANG and Tsgt. P.Rossi, I learned to become a very proficient Night Baker specializing in Desserts! Made my fellow Airmen at the 104 TCS (FACP) Coos Bay,Or. Very happy. The unit is now part of Oregon Military history. Felt good to have done my part! RIP, 104

I'm in a MO Guard Engineer unit, and fed over 400 engineers in Guatemala for 2 weeks while they were building schools for the local children there. It was a very rewarding experience.

In my 8 years of service being a 92g is still a great experience, unlimited amount of culinary knowledge to learn, different opportunities you can take (I.e culinary arts team, general's aid), the army needs us, our mos gives us opportunity to be creative with our products and take proud in the kitchen. While I deployed back in '10 I was a crew serve gunner in a security detachment with the infantry and MPs. We are the jack of all trades. Yes our hours might suck at times and dealing with tasks at the company is a headache and a half due to our schedule and mission but in the end every job has its ups and downs. We are a family, we get through it, we always do.

Being a 92G. Is one of the most rewarding MOS's in the Army. I had worked in hospitality prior to joining the Army. But it has been blessing. The Soldiers, I have served and the experiences we create are very unique. Food is primal it creates and molds traditions. Seeing a Soldier find some peace and motivation during chow makes it all the worth while. Thank you to my brothers and sisters who serve those who's serve. It is the best service of its kind.

92G is the only MOS That is in a position to feed soldiers mind, body, and soul. Don't forget it's part of a Heritage the extends from eons before the U.S. military and is built upon a foundation of civilian chefs' blood and fire.
