Is making memes about an NCO considered disrespectful (granted the meme consists of quotes from the NCO)?

So i have soldiers that made YU GI OH CARDS of Indviduals in the company, as a corporal i thought they are hilarious and showed battle buddies because they are true in nature.... 1sg called me into the office and said its disrespect to a senior NCO and CO... if the cards are things they do or say on a weekly basis is it still considered disrespect. nothing offensive or degrading was said just fact

I can't judge the cards...but once the CoC decides they are disrespectful, and they tell you to knock it off, then that's it. No more fun. Sorry, but that's the military.

It could be "perceived" as mocking the person. in this case, we sway out of Objective territory and into Subjective territory. Although there is no intent for disrespect, because it can be viewed as disrespectful by others, caution should be used.

Perception, Perception. I had a Soldier of mine post some things on Facebook a few yrs ago without using my name but if you read it you knew who was talking about. After he had a heart to heart talk with myself then with the Commander and 1SG he knew not to do it again.

I had a J3 in Afghanistan who used to extol his virtues all day every day to anyone who would listen. He showed up with a handlebar mustache and would waste everyone's time in daily meetings talking about himself. My job was to keep him on track, I also had to tell him to adhere to uniform standards. Before I left, I had taken to playing the theme to Commander McBragg. Was it disrespectful? yes. and wrong. But I couldn't help it, and he was a meathead.

Commander McBragg -- Khyber Pass (kind of like Gary Faulkner)
This one was especially entertaining to us.

CSM David Heidke - CSM, That is funny. But my guess is that he didn't have a clue.
