<span style="background-color: rgb(248, 248, 248); ">We need to go back to BASICS. Military customs and courtesy, Army values, Basic Warrior skills, etc. If a soldier can't stick the program, chapter him/her out. I'm Stationed at Campbell, going through Air Assault School and I've ran across a few Privates who have no respect for NCOs or officers. <br><br>We as leaders, are failing also. My last unit had almost 1 DUI every month. And over 50% of them were NCOs. I.e: MSG(P) gets a DUI, still gets promoted to E9. But then again, all the years in service, and dedication to the Army gives him a free pass. (any comments on that?)</span>
