Next rank is Tech Sgt. Not sure what a gunny is? Is your dh AF or Army?

E-8! That's great!

Gunnery sergeant.
Mine is Army and he is in 12years and 9 month or so. But atleast he is senior enlisted which means if we should move back to post housing one day we get better housing.

just checked thats a marine rank

we have private, PFC(E3) SPC& Corporal(E4), SGT(E5)SSG(E6)SFC (E7) MSG & 1st SGT (E8) , SGM CSM
SGM of the Army all E9's

That would explain it then. The rank structure is the same, but they call it different stuff

My sister's DH is an officer (commissioned) in the Army. He just got deployed (again). AF generally leaves their boys (and girls) at home more.

Yeah, the extra pay is always good too

What is your DH?

He is a SSgt(E-6). He is up for meritorious Gunny and he said we should find out next week. He doubts he is going to get it due to his PFT not being perfect. Kinda irritates me they put so much stock in how many pull ups he can do instead of how a great leader and go-getter he is. Oh well, such is the life!
