I didn't call anyone Sarge when I was in. It was always Sergeant out of respect. ('70-'73)

Hello, ShadowsDad! Another elder for me to respect!  Big Grin

I hear you on the Sarge thing. As I explained in my reply earlier to Jayaruh, there were those that were sticklers about using the correct title and those that were less so. I started my career as a stickler thinking as you did, but as I relaxed in my final five years I found the term to be endearing and quite respectful in its own way.  To me, respect was so much more than a title. As always, there was a time and a place for it's use and most troops were pretty good at figuring it out.

It's great to see all the Veterans on the board! Which branch did you serve in?
