or anyone else who knows what hes talking about. heres my question.
How important of a role does a non-commissioned officer play in the day to day activities of a combat arms unit? Ive heard conflicting things and I havent had much experience with yall. From what I understand, the role of an NCO is nowhere near as important in the British Army than it is in the United States. Officers run everything, NCO's just enforce and enlisted obey. Now in the US Army, that is far from the truth. The NCO is the backbone. I dont wanna sound like an asshole so please correct me if Im wrong.
shit, this question could go to any member of any military.
