I got yelled at a few times for walking on some unit's grass. The grass was more like a dirt pit with small patches of thinning grass. Kind of like a balding man barely has any hair anymore. I looked down at the grass, realized it was mostly dirt, and then looked up at the Senior NCO and decided it wasn't a fight worth fighting. So I just moved over to the sidewalk.

I always wondered why the CSM didn't own the grass on ranges or areas where ftx 's were conducted... It's all grass. Then nobody would be able to walk anywhere.

It's always dirt... There is never grass. If you walk on actual grass it means nothing. It only seems to matter on those sparsely scattered patches of grass in a small field of dirt and rocks. You know... those ones where the grass is so out of the way that you wouldn't have stepped on it anyway...
