I served in the SIGDET before going to the course. SO here is the deal for you as a SIGDET cdr.

You are the ultimate FOBBIT.

We expect you to never interface with the team sergeants.

We expect you to have a working relationship with all of your b team sr. commo sergeants.

You job IS leadership! You are a commander. You have in your command people who need to know their job. Make sure they accomplish the task but stay out of the way. Make sure your snr NCO in the sigdet gets those fobbits under your command out of their office chairs and into the gym. They have a tendency to become a grayish color after sitting indoors for 6 months. Still, remember that the senior NCO of the SIGDET has experience that you don't have. Think of him as a PLT SGT and you are a new dumb ass PL.

Hope that helped.
