Summary
During a noncommissioned officer induction ceremony, Command Sgt. Maj. Federico E. Boyce, senior enlisted advisor, 4th Maneuver Enhancement Brigade, 1st Infantry Division, addresses newly promoted sergeants on the importance of being a responsible leader, Sept. 11, 2013. The Army NCO Induction ceremony symbolizes the step from junior enlisted to being a member of the Corps of Noncommissioned Officers, which is also known as "the backbone of the Army." Boyce said the ceremony was intentionally held on Patriots’ Day so the group of inductees could honor and remember those fellow noncommissioned officers who have given the ultimate sacrifice in defense of our nation.
