CSS lead and X- NCO for Wing top 3 as well as 38 pilots in our fighter squadron.

CSS are the black sheep some units, however, we embrace the crazy. Listing of a “few” jobs : aofficial correspondence review and distro, maintain schedule inline with flying, promotions- discharges — reenlistments — orders specialist l; assuring RA to ensure tours are funded — modification/creation/ etc. — QCing all OPRS and EPRs. Tracking medical readiness. DTS for pilots. Coordinating cross funding for pilots to support missions outside of home base. M4S pro — Award and dec guru — AFI nerd. Add 10+ additional duties if you are so lucky.

Summed up, CSS are chaos controllers . Our job is to identify issues members may have not see and resolve them ASAP. We are the fixers, if there is an issue hindering your AOR you must circumvent it. Desk jockey or not, we are here to ensure jets and pilots are in the air.

P.s. Tough-skin is mandatory
