Wearing ROTC uniform to a military funeral?

And then there's the whole Facebook issue. Hometown bros are likely to post dozens of pictures of DS, which cadre will see, so...

Btw, I posted a picture of DS his first day in uniform and a Cadet Sgt posted a comment about the fact that he had his hand in his pocket.

The corps is a wonderful thing in that it gives you training in dealing with nuts and nutty rules. On that parents weekend we were to meet DS in his room. He left the room door open for us because he would be late. The corps Sgt tore apart the room for leaving door open. He was finishing this task just as we got there. Seeing us arrive he was absolutely horrified as was the Corps Lt who was supervising him. To me they were just kids too so I said it was alright. It was difficult to get them to stop apologizing. They were in fact good friends with DS who laughed he arrived. As your DS rises through the corp keep in mind that he should want to build his charges. He should help them succeed in GPA and ROTC. Dont ever break or haze anyone. Always uderstand that some will not commision for one reason or another. Use logic in all actions. For now DS must focus on GPA and fitness.

I'm a rook at Norwich now and if you mean leaving the door unlocked, that actually is a big deal because we have rifles in our room and if the door is unlocked and unoccupied you could potentially loose a weapon and the school would have to be locked down until it was recovered, if you mean leaving it open when he's in there, then that's weird because we're required to have it open when we're in the room
