Abstract:
Army Transformation is changing the face of our military profession. During this time in history, the military profession is facing tremendous challenges. While much has been publicized about the impact of Transformation on the officer corps, senior leaders must be conscious of the implications of Army Transformation on the "backbone of the Army", the noncommissioned officer. This paper looks at the noncommissioned officer corps in context of its transition from the Cold War Era to the 21st century. It addresses contemporary issues affecting noncommissioned officers and makes recommendations that strengthen the NCO Corps through education, professional development and senior leader involvement.
