(Tech or Technician ranks were a type of noncommissioned officer rank developed to provide extra pay to soldiers who had extra skills and/or experience but who did not have the leadership roles of a traditional noncommissioned officer rank such as a corporal or a sergeant. However, there was no one job description for a technician. Instead, the duties they performed depended on their military occupational classification, the type of unit they served in, and their position within their unit.)
