Who is the Senior Drill Sergeant?

• A. SMA Weimer
• B. COL Lee
• C. SDS Pabustan
• D. CSM Pilcher

Answer: (C)

The Senior Drill Sergeant is the lead drill sergeant on the drill floor, designated by the title SDS. This role oversees the drill sergeant team, ensures training standards and safety, and coordinates day-to-day training operations with the DS staff. Among the options, the person identified as SDS Pabustan fits this role, since SDS stands for Senior Drill Sergeant. The other names correspond to different high-level Army positions (SMA is the Sergeant Major of the Army, a COL is a colonel, and CSM is a Command Sergeant Major) and are not the Senior Drill Sergeant in a drill-training context. Therefore, SDS Pabustan is the correct answer.
