Stewart Air National Guard Base, N.Y. (Jan. 5, 2019) — The 105th Airlift Wing recognized newly promoted staff sergeants during the fifth annual non-commissioned officer’s induction ceremony at Stewart Air National Guard Base, Newburgh, New York, January 5, 2019.
Airmen assigned to a variety of career fields throughout the 105th AW were among the packed room of attendees who watched as the NCOs were addressed with inspirational words from the keynote speaker, U.S. Army Sergeant Major Kenisha Lamothe, U.S. Army Garrison West Point command sergeant major.
Master Sgt. Crystal Grafer was the master of ceremonies for the event.
“This ceremony is important to the newly promoted staff sergeants because it formally identifies their transition from Airmen to supervisors,” Grafer said.
Attendees proudly watched as the NCOs recited the non-commissioned officer’s charge, which highlighted core values such as integrity, loyalty, dedication, devotion to duty, and leadership.
“Those attributes were emphasized in order to remind all NCOs in attendance that they should hold themselves and their subordinates accountable in order to maintain the Air Force’s respected legacy,” said Grafer.
Col. Denise Donnell, 105th AW commander, Col. Wilburn Biggin, 105th AW vice commander, and Chief Master Sgt. Mark Cozzupoli, 105th AW command chief, were all in attendance and participated in presenting the certificates to the NCOs and recognizing their accomplishments.
