Duties of a QMSI

To confuse things, the Infantry School has both a DSM and a QMSI

;D

They need to make members of all the Regiments feel equally under the gun.

Hey - nobody has answered my implied question.  What appointment does the R22eR have that fulfills this role?

QMSI = Quarter Master Sergeant Instructor

Close, Quarter Master Senior Instructor

Actually, I am more inclined for the Quarter Master Sergeant Instructor.

S is for Sergeant.  However, it seems both can be found on DND websites.  Dig through these bios to see:

I do understand the word "template" and I know what a Part 1 is for - I've been doing these for a year or two (check my profile before you launch into a definition) I was just wondering about the concept of "canned" PDR's.  Can ya get part 5's on the M drive too?

LOL I never assume anything based on a profile....I've run into many a senior person in this military that have litttle to no experience with writing evaluations let alone an understanding of the PDR/PER system. 

Canned PDRs no...can't say I've ever seen those sitting around.  Just the PDR with Part 1 filled out to use as needed.

Are you saying people dishonestly fill out their profiles?

Is the difference between DSM and QMSI related to the different origins of the regiments?  Line regiment vs. light infantry?

Anyone?

Much to my chagrin, I am not fluent in the other official language - so a post in the Francaise boards is not an option for me.

I hear you loud and clear on that one MJP.  Fair enough - let's say then, I was taught the PER / PDR system by Vern.  You are absolutely correct though - there are many Sr NCO's quite oblivious to how the process works and for me to say that "just because" I have TI and rank doesn't mean that you should assume I know what i'm at behind a desk... that's just laughable!!  At any rate, i'm personally quite fond of tailoring a part one (PDR) to the individual in that position.  Don't get me wrong, all the bases are covered (no chance for redress later on) but I re-write the Pt 1 when the positions are re-staffed.  Pt 1's are given at the end of the PER interview in April, or when incumbents change.  Pt 3/4/5's are given end Aug and end Nov.
