Not many women make it to Sergeant Major, so this very special post goes out to my Sister Sergeant Major Petra George-Clement. Here is a press release in her honor from 2012. Thank you for your dedicated service! I love you! Her profile is also listed in the book 100 SERGEANTS MAJOR OF COLOR! Governor de Jongh Congratulates St. Croix Native on Army Promotion On Monday, Governor John P. de Jongh, Jr. offered his congratulations to Petra George-Clement on her promotion to the highest rank an enlisted soldier can achieve in the U.S. Army. George-Clement received her promotion to the rank of sergeant major on June 13, 2012 in Arlington, Va., where she has been on assignment for eight years. The Christiansted native currently is assigned to the Directorate of Training at the Soldier Support Institute at Fort Jackson as the Directorate of Training Sergeant Major and National Guard Bureau Financial Management Liaison. “This promotion is proper recognition for a tremendous military career that began some 30 years ago in the Virgin Islands National Guard. Sgt. Major George-Clement rose through the ranks, serving with excellence in so many units and senior positions until reaching the pinnacle of success as an enlisted soldier,” de Jongh said. “George-Clements career should serve as source of inspiration to many young Virgin Islanders who wish to answer the call of service to their country and who believe they can realize their dreams in the armed forces of the United States,” de Jongh said. Sgt. Major George-Clement has been decorated with several military awards, including the Meritorious Service Medal, Army Commendation, Joint Staff Achievement Medal. She is also currently working on obtaining a doctorate degree from Capella University.
