There’s this guy… then every other FB coach.

Kirby is as “believable” as they come. Good luck recruiting against this. It’s why I’ve admired UGA ever since they nipped our #Sooners in Pasadena.

Everyone competes against this “standard.”

Not easy. But not impossible.

America's greatest military advantage is its logistical power, hands down.

Our second greatest advantage is our technology.

But third, right behind that technology, and the consistent reason we always stomp people who are supposed to have near-peer equipment: Our NCO Corps.

This is drilled into young Non-Commissioned Officers in the U.S. Military from the moment we put on stripes. The Army has an entire creed dedicated to the NCO. "No one is more professional than I... Competence is my watchword."

It feels like homiletic drivel until you have experience with other militaries and realize why they have no real respect for NCO's. There's a reason even the King of Operators had to pretend to be a Commissioned Officer to warrant respect in Africa.

I went to an NCO Academy as an E5, a simple "buck" Sergeant. In my class were a handful of foreign NCOs that the Army had permitted to join us for training. Their NCOs were not simple buck Sergeants, but were Sergeants Major—the same rank (in theory) as SGM Vining.

These gentlemen were nice, but dear Lord, they were not very bright. They seemed afraid to do anything without orders. None of them graduated. Not one foreign NCO graduated. Their Sergeants Major could not graduate a course for a buck Sergeant. It was an enlightening experience.

If you really study Admiral Horatio Nelson you'll find one of the best traits he had as a commander—and he learned it from his own commanders coming up—was to grant his subordinates enough authority to take initiative. (This initiative of subordinates won him the Battle of the Nile, for example.)

Well, the United States applies that principle to all soldiers down the ranks, but most heavily into the NCO Corps.

American NCOs are the best in the world because we design our military in a way that selects for and promotes ability and initiative in the Enlisted ranks. We encourage Enlisted to get an education, to study, to learn by doing, observing, and studying. (Some sneak through while being terrible, but every system has some weaknesses.)

By the time someone has gone from Private to Sergeant Major, in the United States Army, they have already gone through (as they were called in my time) the Warrior Leader's Course (4 weeks), Advanced Leader's Course (4-8 weeks), Senior Leader's Course (4-8 weeks), and the Sergeants Major Academy (10 months). This was totally separate from all the other copious amounts of training—this was just the temporary duty assignment schools for just being an NCO in your field.

When the NCO's Creed describes the NCO as the Backbone of the Army, its not just a feel-good phrase. Its the truth. Where the rubber meets the road; where the Officer's ideas and plans turn into action and where plans adapt to survive contact with the enemy.
