Addition of Warrant Officer ranks in the U.S. Air Force
Sign Now
As you know, the U.S. Air Force is the only branch of the United States Military that does not have the Warrant Officer ranks. We feel that this is unfair to the members of the Air Force, who work just as hard as members of the other branches, and can obtain the same degrees. In the other branches, an Enlisted member can obtain an Associates Degree in an approved field, and have experience in that field, and request training as a Warrant Officer. In the Air Force, the only step up for Enlisted members is to get a full Bachelors Degree, and apply for OTS, which has a very long waiting period, due to that being the only option. Because of this, the Air Force is losing out on very skilled personnel to be helicopter pilots, bomber air crews, etc.
There are currently Enlisted members who would gladly go to Warrant Officer training, and who are more than qualified for those ranks. There are Staff Sergeants with 2 associates degrees, a bachelors and working on their masters degrees, who can not go to OTS, as there is no room, who would be perfect candidates for Warrant Officer, and not need retraining for new specialty.
By instating the Warrant Officer ranks, it will show the Enlisted members of the U.S. Air Force that they can advance beyond the Enlisted ranks, and show their leadership abilities.
We ask that you, the Secretary of the Air Force, work to bring the Warrant Officer ranks to the Air Force.

Looks like this is where the angry CMSgts hang out? Well, that's too bad for them. I wouldn't mind becoming a Warrant Officer if it meant that I could give CMSgt Pate a double eye-gouge and putting CMSgt Jett into the cross faced chicken wing. I wonder if

I think the USAF has made a grave error in the decision to end the warrent officer program. At the time the TSgt had the same knowledge as the Warrant Officer, but now the USAF has changed so much with the combining of career fields the Warrant Officer is
