00:00.140 --> 00:02.900
- Sergeant Garcia.
- Here, Sergeant Major.

00:02.900 --> 00:03.733
- [Sergeant Major] How many candidates

00:03.733 --> 00:05.300
are present here today and observed

00:05.300 --> 00:07.829
to be members of the time-honored Corps?

00:07.829 --> 00:11.236
- Sergeant Major, we have 91 NCOs.

00:11.236 --> 00:13.010
- The purpose of this ceremony

00:13.010 --> 00:17.460
is to induct the 91 highly
motivated warriors into the rank

00:17.460 --> 00:19.382
of the Non-Commissioned Officer Corps.

00:19.382 --> 00:22.760
Throughout our Army
history NCOs have performed

00:22.760 --> 00:26.810
vital tasks as small unit
leaders, subject matter expert,

00:26.810 --> 00:29.354
trainers and most importantly

00:29.354 --> 00:33.070
guardians of the Army
standards and discipline.

00:33.070 --> 00:36.020
- So, what we did here today
was an NCO induction ceremony

00:36.020 --> 00:38.560
that celebrated the newly
promoted NCOs into becoming

00:38.560 --> 00:42.110
the, part of the NCO Corps,
the backbone of the Army.

00:42.110 --> 00:44.540
And this is a tradition
that is not celebrated

00:44.540 --> 00:48.680
very often but when celebrated
it is a very big part

00:48.680 --> 00:51.980
of the NCO who just got promoted.

00:51.980 --> 00:53.710
- It was a great experience.

00:53.710 --> 00:56.240
Proud to be a part of the
Non-Commissioned Officer

00:56.240 --> 00:59.903
Time Honored Corps I just
hope that I can be as good

00:59.903 --> 01:03.613
a leader as those who've lead before me.
