Recognition Countdown

I know a kid in 23 that helped with the removal of "Steal" from the honor wall. He said that they are restricted and cannot wear civies until UCI. That may be what you are referring to.
 
HOAH! BARNSTORMIN' 23! there are two freshman barnstormers who are on these forums and I am one! Let me clear some things up here. First of all the video. The video was fine to play in Mitchs during lunch on our day, but we posted it on youtube and the two who were "in charge" got yelled and told to take it down by our AOC. They did NOT get in trouble, some one else from outside our sqaud posted it. Nobody got in trouble for the video.

Now for the not recognized comment. On the saturday of 100s night weekend 8 of us(including me) took "steal" off the honor wall. We got in trouble, but will still be recognized. Rooms in SAMI till UCI, restricted till UCI and no civis till UCI. We are still being recognized, but there is a pretty big punishment.


O and watch for another video during the lunch this coming week.


9 days!
 
Ramius, didn't understand what you had said. My bad, I was saying to look harder for the video.

UCI is Unit Compliance Inspection. Its a big event like a month after Recognition.
 
8 DAYS!

Getting pretty excited. Found out yesterday I got Jump......Prog GR's are basically over. Training session today, only a couple left. Almost there.
 
I think the "VIP" in the video was a bad idea and got them in trouble. I think they also got in trouble for stealing the "STEAL" during NCLS.

The lead guy and some of the others lost recognition privleges and have to earn them back. So they made a video about that. I'm not sure if they posted it yet. I'll ask the guy, he's in my Russian class.
 
Recognition Probation Program?

>>Lots of squads are happy they're letting 4*'s fail recognition this year with this new Recognition Probation program. I seriously think my squad isn't going to recognize a kid after a few things he said to his classmates.<<

read this over on CC.... any truth to it?

We did get briefed on Recognition Probation. You have to fail either the SAMI or the Knowledge test AND 2 of the 4 courses AND have pretty much everyone in your chain of command say that you are not worthy of recognition.

Long story short, you have to be one horrible 4dig not to get recognized. I feel like even if you did fail the tests people still would not have it in their heart to not recognize you, unless they truly hated you.
 
fencersmother,
I just came across a you-tube video that was sent to my son at Notre Dame....I hope what you heard rumored is true.....I found the video disturbing and have forwarded to some other Colonels. I haven't been on this sight for a long time, but my daughter is starting her application process now. I am not sure I want her there. Her choice of coarse, but as her mother, I would like to see what these other colleges could offer her first. I am disappointed with USAFA. My husband being a grad, I always thought they picked the cream of the crop. They got it wrong.
 
there are several people in my squadron i will have no problem not recognizing if they don't prove themselves next week. there are some on the border in my flight that if they perform poorly enough, i will recommend they not be recongized.


usafa84,
You think less of this instiution because of a fun video cadets put together? yes, improper training techniques that are not permitted were shown, but it was a video which tried (and succeeded!) in boosting morale. Is there another issue you had with the video?
 
and i'm number 2. we didn't mean any harm at all by the video. we had already had our spirit missions we had planned denied for various reasons (including NCLS) so it was something we somewhat threw together the weekend before. it'll be something i'll be proud of for a long time. just to say i was in it. same with the rest of us. and we did get chewed out for that and other stuff plenty of times that week. so we paid a price. not like we completely got away with it. unfortunately, we've been banned from making any other videos from now on. sorry guys

:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

It's a freaking music video. It's supposed to be rediculous and humorous!

If you think less of an institution because its students can make inside jokes...well, I don't really know what to say.
 
Hmmm,

Maybe if someone is so easily offended by something that was obviously made with tongue in cheek and as a morale booster for Doolies in the home stretch...well, maybe they should look elsewhere...

And nobody likes a tattletale:thumbdown:

I'm not saying, I'm just saying...:rolleyes:
