The Year of the Noncommissioned Officer
During his keynote address at the opening of the 2008 Association of the United States Army Annual Meeting and Exposition, Secretary of the Army Pete Geren announced that 2009 would be "the Year Of The Noncommissioned Officer." "At the front of every Army mission in the United States or overseas, you'll find a non-commissioned officer," he said. "They know their mission, they know their equipment, but most importantly, they know their Soldiers."

But the first Year of the NCO was actually held in 1989 when Hon. John O. Marsh made a similar proclamation. That first event was a hallmark year that led to many accomplishment of the US Army noncommissioned officer and our special section here on NCOhistory.com is dedicated to 1989. Stop by, take a look, and see some of the long-lasting events that were completed. And don't forget to enter our second annual Writing Contest.
