When I was in Daegu you seemed to be a pretty good NCO. Your husband, not so much. The male Soldiers were not really fans of me, female Soldiers fault I guess. All of this mayhem must have happened after I left. Oh, well. Hopefully your family is doing well. If this is the real Nekeda Gundy. You should not be worried about comments from 3 years ago. Let it go and move on. Brittany Tircuit Lori McNeil Harlowe Allen The Hagers They were there when I was there. Plenty of NCOs have taught their Soldiers how to game the system (not saying you did).

They are called stove pipe units and fall under other commands, ie: the hospital falls under MEDCOM, MI falls under INSCOM, 1st SIG falls under 311th SIG CMD and on to NETCOM.....all are GO billets outside Korea. However, for operational control all are under 8th Army....weird kinda mom and dad thing. As for court martial panels.....each Area has court martial authority held by the GO in that area. The pool of NCOs and Officers selected for duty is based on what area they are stationed. Trust me I know, Area 1 made me sign papers acknowledging I could be called for duty. Then I had to show orders going to Area 2 to be removed. Then Area 2 made me sign up for their program.....lol. Not sure what the regs say but everyone that i know has gone through the same process.....lol Just to set the record straight on units…..there are several units that don’t fall directly under 8th Army.

As for the exec asst gig- that must have been a real eye opener. Sounds like you might have seen quite a bit- and you still might want to let someone know about it.

Anyone that was under the UCMJ could have sat on the the juror panel. This is what was so upseting. But just to answer part of your question. 2ID doesn't fall up under 8th Army. And the signal command is stove piped directly from DA. Vince:

It's just another field that we can work in. I was interviewed for the position working for LTG Valcourt when I was working in the G1 for General McHale. I was moved to Seoul for this position. I didn't just get this as an assignment. Those positions have to be interviewed for. You don't just come on orders for those assignment. And actually taking an Ex Admin position as a Human Resource Specialist is actually a downgrade because that job is mostly filled by the old 71Ls before they were converted into 42A. Hope that answered your question. Vince

Don't 'super'-senior CSMs (such as those who work for multiple-star GOs) have these assistants? Maybe they don't officially call it an executive assistant, but I know -somebody- works for them and handles their schedule, etc...

That must have been some SPC that THOUGHT she was a executive assistant. CSMs don’t have executive assistants – only GOs (maybe some COLs).
