Evolving Role of the Noncommissioned Officer

Abstract

As the test of time prevails, so does the role of the Noncommissioned Officer (NCO) in the United States Army. The evolving role of the NCO Corps is a testament to their will and intestinal fortitude to progress and make positive impacts on the day to day activities in the organization in garrison, and during combat operations in the contemporary operating environment. The journey of the NCO encompasses a gradual progress in learning by doing, leading from the front, adaptation to situational awareness, and advising from experience.
