My question is posted here for input and response by current or former midshipman.
The term Setback here is referring to the noun, the person...The Setback.
In the interest of full disclosure, I have heard (yes, those nasty rumors again) that Setbacks are treated much less than positively by the regiment as a whole....to be specific, berated by company officers, belittled by those in charge, excluded and forbidden from participating in certain activities (ie the recent recognition 'events') etc. etc. Almost to the point that the class they were a part of does not want to have anything to do with them, and the class they are now part of does not either, so they are "midshipmen without a country" per se.
So, I just want to know is this all just a rumor or is there something to it?
Thanks
