You broke military regs, so paid the price, don't see the problem to be honest.

I can understand your ego is hurt through, but you are in the military now, take it as a soldier and move on.


I'm not in the military. I'm not a soldier. I'm a civilian in a military organization. There is a HUGE difference. My ego? Please. I'm not hurt because he told me to take my headgear off. I'm pissed off because what is supposed to be an outstanding citizen and respectful soldier disrespected another person in a public place. I've known many people that are in the military my entire life. Hell, I've known a Lt. Colonel before he passed away. None of these people would have ever acted in that manner, ever.

While that IS a tad disrespectful, since you're not a high-ranking officer, and since your warrent officer wasn't around to tell you otherwise, I suppose he DID have the authority to tell you what you were doing is wrong.

Stuff's supposed to be tough anyways. Best advice I can give is to just suck it up.


He should be able to tell a cadet to take their headgear off if they have it on indoors. That's not a problem. It is a problem when they act like a jerk-off to a cadet in public when they really have no official authority over a cadet.

Suck it up? Of course I did, what am I supposed to do? I'm not going to get butt-hurt and cry about it, but I am going to get pissed off. Not every cadet is like me. Most cadets are young, and sensitive to that kind of criticism (if that's the correct word). If it had been another cadet, they might have broken down and cried, an been extremely upset by the issue. If that were to happen to another cadet, and they did breakdown and cry, you might see some phone calls being made by our instructors. Especially when you tell a cadet who's been in the program for four years that they haven't earned their uniform, that would raise some tempers or flare some emotions.
