All has been taken care of at this point, and our CO has required that my Soldier attend some financial management classes, with which I completely agree.<br /><br />However, he has made a requirement of my Soldier to provide him with his personal bank statements twice a month for an undetermined period of time. I have been trying to locate information on whether or not this is a legal order or a violation of my Soldier's personal information. Any clarification would be great, even better is where I might find this in black and white (ie., regulation) Thanks to one and all in advance.<br /><br />Background: Basically, he failed to calculate the tax for his airfare from Korea to his home in the states. He failed to look for his purchase verification and at the last minute, realized that his tickets had not been purchased. Much of his family was flying in for a reunion with him from around the world.<br /><br />If it wasn't for his family already having properly purchased their tickets, I would have let him learn from his mistake the hard way. However, I couldn't do that to him in this situation. ...call me soft.Disclosing Personal Financial Documents to Chain of Command2014-08-29T07:36:30-04:00CW2 Private RallyPoint Member221125<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Good evening,<br /><br />I have a Soldier that admittedly made a one-time mistake with his finances that prompted him to request assistance from AER.

That is where you will most likely get the best answer to your question in a timely manner. Good luck to you and your Soldier.Response by CW3 Private RallyPoint Member made Aug 30 at 2014 8:06 AM2014-08-30T08:06:13-04:002014-08-30T08:06:13-04:00CPT Pedro Meza1514387<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Let approach this from he failed to carry out his duty as per his MOS and your instructions what would you do to ensure that he does not repeat his mistakes. So do your part and talk to the soldier and makes sure that he does as he is told by the boss. Think Wax On Wax Off.Response by CPT Pedro Meza made May 9 at 2016 9:48 PM2016-05-09T21:48:52-04:002016-05-09T21:48:52-04:002014-08-29T07:36:30-04:00
