As far as I know you just took over the senior "O" spot on the board but I spent 14 years on the enlisted side of the house too.

The senior NCO's I was privileged to serve with usually kept me out of serious trouble (especially when I was a butter bar). Without them ( and the other EM's) I never would have been able to last long enough to retire.

I know that I will never fill the seinor Officer slot but I think that I am the only Chaplian.

Army, 3 years down 17 to go.

Save for seniority, a tie perhaps. HighNTight is LTC.

You're not. Dig around and see if you can find the other one(s)

Ahhh, you're right. I forgot he was promoted since he's been here. Good catch.

I don't wear my rank (or my uniform for that matter) anymore since I went on retired status, so as far as I'm concerned I hold no "senior" anything status. I gladly cede anything of that nature to those still wearing the uniform and serving.
