It is most likely going to be limited to being able to speak to the other members of the formation. All forms of tobacco are usually forbidden in a controlled setting. Thank you for your service.Response by CSM Darieus ZaGara made Aug 25 at 2018 5:26 AM2018-08-25T05:26:38-04:002018-08-25T05:26:38-04:00SPC Private RallyPoint Member3909062<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Your in Cilivian attire so of course.Response by SPC Private RallyPoint Member made Aug 25 at 2018 8:38 AM2018-08-25T08:38:02-04:002018-08-25T08:38:02-04:00SPC Private RallyPoint Member3909284<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Yes.Response by SPC Private RallyPoint Member made Aug 25 at 2018 10:11 AM2018-08-25T10:11:10-04:002018-08-25T10:11:10-04:00SFC Private RallyPoint Member3909509<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Civilian attire and formations....2 things that really shouldn't be together.....with that being said, if you are in "formation" then you should abide by the same customs and courtesies as if you were in uniform.Response by SFC Private RallyPoint Member made Aug 25 at 2018 11:14 AM2018-08-25T11:14:03-04:002018-08-25T11:14:03-04:00SGM Bill Frazer3909587<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>In formation? Sure- It is up to the person in charge, A good soldier will be able to dip/chew at anytime, because YOU WILL LEARN TO SWALLOW, not spit!Response by SGM Bill Frazer made Aug 25 at 2018 11:52 AM2018-08-25T11:52:53-04:002018-08-25T11:52:53-04:00MSG Private RallyPoint Member3911017<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Can you? Sure (on a very small technical basis) Should you? No. As a smoker, I do NOT ever pull out a smoke when given this command. And I expect all Dippers to follow suit. And if I am in charge of the formation, I sure as Hell better not see that can come out of the pocket as my pack of smokes do not come out.Response by MSG Private RallyPoint Member made Aug 26 at 2018 1:26 AM2018-08-26T01:26:07-04:002018-08-26T01:26:07-04:00SSG Robert Ball3913654<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>At the position of rest i.would say yes. Now with that said don't start spitting its just wrong doing that in any formation. I have chewed most of my life and I will tell you I learned to swallow like a good grunt long ago... learn live itResponse by SSG Robert Ball made Aug 26 at 2018 11:32 PM2018-08-26T23:32:32-04:002018-08-26T23:32:32-04:00SGT Nick Webber3927570<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>If you gut it, and don't have a whole can in then yes. But if your gonna be obvious about it then no. It's common sense. I had a chew in while holding the squadron guidon during the CSM change of responsibility, he asked me for one before if started.Response by SGT Nick Webber made Aug 31 at 2018 11:16 PM2018-08-31T23:16:56-04:002018-08-31T23:16:56-04:002018-08-25T04:04:14-04:00
