Verette Promoted to U.S. Air Force Master Sergeant
Carlos L. Verette, a 2004 graduate of Abbeville High School, was recently promoted to Master Sergeant in the U.S. Air Force. Verette joined the Air Force in 2005 where his job was in mechanical engineering. Master Sergeant (MSgt) is the third Non-Commissioned Officer rank in the United States Air Force. It is just above Technical Sergeant and below Senior Master Sergeant.
The promotion to Master Sergeant is known as one of the most significant promotions in the Air Force, and it is the point where an airman enters the Senior Non-Commissioned Officer tier.
A MSgt’s responsibilities start to shift from technical duties towards commanding larger amounts of subordinates. It is also the lowest rank one can hold to be eligible to become a First Sergeant, or advisor to a Unite Commander.
MSgt Verette is currently stationed in Tucson, Arizona where he lives with his wife, Brandy Verette and their 3 children. He is the son of Tony and Clarice Landry and Ricky and Michelle White of Abbeville, LA.
His family is very proud of him and will be attending an induction ceremony in August and a pinning ceremony in October.
