PASigDude is HUGE, holy crap!
I saw this on his LinkedIn profile:
Serves as the Sr. Enlisted Aide at West Point (USMA) Superintendent; responsible for the maintenance, operations and accountability of a 16,500 sq foot 1820 historic General Officers quarters(one of the oldest in the military)including priceless museum pieces worth over 12 million dollars. Plan, prepare and services social functions to hundreds of high-ranking foreign and domestic dignitaries, both civilian and military; responsible for the training, performance and welfare of dedicated personal assigned.From working in the Army around these guys, basically he’s a fancy military butler/party planner/Chef/gopher in that role. These guys get selected and go to Fort Lee, VA for a while to learn the job then get assigned to a General. They plan all these events, oversee the cooks, run errands like picking up the General's dry cleaning, set their uniforms up like all the medals and badges in the right spots, etc. A lot of work and pretty prestigious. Maybe butler is the wrong word for it.
I definitely would NOT be calling this guy a butler to his face...

mr kablammoDon't trust a skinny cook.
This thread is getting me intersted in White House cookbooks.

That made me giggle. However, I think baking is much more challenging than regular ol' food cooking.

DSgrouseI love to cook, Throw small parties. I have been a stay at home dad most of our 21-year marriage. I have heard every house husband joke there is. This Master Sergeant has likely heard far worse. He has excelled at every turn. His list of accomplishments is amazing. I have nothing but admiration.

Maybe Tac can chime in, but doesn't the UK military have role called "batman" or something like that for their officers? Obviously a higher ranking officer will require more stuff, but the job is the same. Focus on the little stuff so the General can work.

Major domo might be a better term for what MSG Rush did in the Army. And no, you do NOT want to cross swords with a general officer's personal aid.
