Battle buddy is to watch for each other's emotional health. If Battle Buddy starts going nuts or suicidal, you're going to be the first to find out.

Christopher Chaos I'm guessing GO #1 is still in effect (The Army treating us like scout troops instead of grown-ass men and women.) The funny thing is, it was never really enforced...unless you were really stupid or got in trouble for something else and the charges were piled on. (Though I do remember a Sergeant Major who'd spend his nights hiding around the LSA wearing NVGs and trying to catch people creeping between trailers.) Everybody had porn on their computers (we'd trade porn and I'd repair their computers, install update packages and remove viruses.) Most of us drank (care packages of "mouthwash" and trading with foreign military personnel and contractors (who could drink.) Those who cared to gambled. And there was sex. Mostly, it was "What happens on deployment...) of the top of my head, incidents that stood out were the married NCOs (to each other) who used a common shelter to hook up (can't blame them), the two lesbian soldiers who got caught naked after drunk sex in a connex (got an Article 15 for drinking...the sex wasn't mentioned), and the Magic Mortar (a couple who'd walked off from the LSA one night caught some shrapnel in a mortar attack. They both had light shrapnel wounds on their torsos and legs - him on the right side and her on the left - but amazingly, the summer PT uniforms they were wearing had no holes. It's a mystery... And those were just a few of the incidents - that came out - from my unit in OIF 1. . As long as you didn't get obvious or stupid about any of it, the chain of command - for the most part - had no interest in GO #1 prosecutions.

You can also do a video on things you SHOULDN'T do while in the Army. I was deployed to Iraq when one of the platoon sergeants (married) was sleeping with one of his soldiers (also married). The favoritism got so bad that the rest of the squad mutinied on the platoon sergeant. Since I had operational control over the section, I went there and chewed them out like a 5 day old cow chud. 'When I screw up, then you can. until then shut up and work' IF you are a leader, DON'T attend parties attended by your soldiers 'This is to protect you from doing something stupid in front of your troop.

In the Navy, while in a foreign port, enlisted had to wear their uniform and have at least one buddy with them. When we pulled into Aalborg, Denmark, I spotted this really old and quaint church. I wanted to see the inside, so I talked two of my shipmates into going to services the next morning. Once the service started, we found out the service was in Danish not English. My buddies looked at me in panick and asked what we should do. I told them we just do what the guy in front of us did. When he stood up, so did we. If he sat, we sat and when he knelt we followed suit. Halfway through the service the Minister said something (in Danish) and the guy in front of us stood up. We looked around and realized there were only four people standing, the guy in front of us and us three sailors. People looked at us with surprised expressions, then they all just started laughing. At the end of the service, we're filing out the back where the Minister told me (in perfect English) how nice it was having us join them for the service. I confessed that none of us spoke Danish, but the church was beautiful and the music was excellent. I then asked him why people were laughing when we stood up. He smiled and said the he had announced the birth of a baby girl to a member of the congregation, and asked the father of the child to stand and be recognized.

I was an MP. At some posts, there was this daily occurrence at approximately 1655, a "retreat rush". There would be personnel double timing or worse, doing the bounding long-stride silly walk to get indoors. When it became a safety issue, we were ordered to crack down on the speeders (in cars) that tried to drive off post to avoid having to stop, stand outside their cars, and salute. The post commander threatened violators (including officers) with daily attendance at reveille and retreat which solved the problem. "Star Spangled Banner" and "Hail to the Chief" were two songs that required standing at attention, even at the movie theater, even out of uniform. Also, about the hat indoors thing, we were told that MPs were considered "under arms" when on duty. Drill sergeants have a similar exemption.

One of the silliest thing was not being able to put your hands in your pockets except to retrieve things like car keys. Even though when I became a senior NCO (E7) I kind of did it more. As an NCO you are required to sign for things or even lower enlisted. DA Form 3161 such as tool boxes or items . As an NCO you are required to have a rater and senior rater. But one thing is required is formations. Another thing is an APFT. Another is going to field and going to the range. You are required to wear a helmet (ACH ) when driving a military vehicle and soldiers must have a TC and ground guide in the motor pool. I seen where soldiers have gotten enough counseling statements for being late to formation and it gotten soldiers demoted and chaptered. Some people may be familiar with common things like I mentioned but others might not understand why a person can be penalized for being late to formation as an example. Enough 4856's and its big problems.

When I was stationed in Ft Carson for the 4th Engineers during the 90s we did not have a battle buddy system during off times, but the battalion did offer resources within the unit if say a soldier needed assistance like mental health or general financial advice of one has problems of such things. When I did battalion CQ we had some office cash to pay the cab if a soldier was short, lost his money or whatever to get back. Sometimes I would hop on the van and get our guys that were clubbing in Colorado Springs myself, maybe get a couple of other dudes from other units, but my stop will be back to our HQ. Sure beats one of our guys getting a DUI or getting hurt because of drunk driving.

I remember your Number 1, saluting the Flag during Revile and Retreat. From what I remember (Baumholder, Germany, 1971-1974) if you were outside and in uniform, you would stop what you were doing, and salute the flag, but if you were in civilian clothes then you just stood at attention. And if you were driving, you were supposed to stop, get out of the car, and either salute or stand at attention. I don't remember anyone running inside during my time, but I do remember hurrying to get inside before the music started, as well as delaying going outside to avoid having to salute. Battle Buddies came around after my time. With regard to that piece about going outside of 250 miles, as far as I remember, that didn't apply to us, BUT. But, we were always on standby, and so if you were given an ALERT (sometimes issued by USAREUR, other times by lower level organizations, this was in case the Soviets decided to cross the border between East and West Germany), you either had to be present, or on an authorized leave or pass, otherwise you would face something from the UCMJ, either an Article 15, or a Courts Martial. Several times a year, the unit would have a muster alert, and a role call would be made of the unit. If you were not present, and the unit leaders didn't know where you were, you faced the UCMJ.

The 250 mile rule is primarily to make line of duty determinations. Service people are assumed to be doing things that fall within their line of duty duties as long as they happen within 250 miles of their permanent duty station. Passes and leave forms extend the definition of the service members line of duty zone, extending the presumption that what your doing falls within your line of duty. Things that happen outside your line of duty can impact your survivors ability to collect your SGLI payment, your eligibility for disability related to line of duty and several other things. AWOL leaves you vulnerable to loss of coverage for benefits you would normally receive if the injury occurs within the scope of your line of duty.

It was a big deal, invitations went out to retired dignitaries. The commander had to constantly keep the CG informed on safety measures. It finally ended up with one minute rounds to help prevent injury. This made for some let downs; as soon as one boxer looked like he was going to score a knockdown the round ended. This was a Friday night, and one thing they love to say about these kinds of things is, “Your place of duty Friday night is the boxing match.”

I was the only idiot to open my eyes when who I thought was someone important but was just another nobody who arrived at reception a cpl days prior to myself, though he was already walking around half cocked in an old pair of bcus. I got suckered into attending the hospital with him til 4am. Shoulda known that was a sign to how much fun id be having

Okay the only one I have even the slightest problem with is mandatory "fun" I don't enjoy playing sports unless it's something like track races, but I do like BBQ lol

1:25 - On Marine Corps bases, Reveille plays at 0530 and we do not raise colors (the Flag) then. Morning Colors is played at 0800, and that’s when the flag is raised. Evening Colors is played at Sunset, and that’s when the flag is lowered. During Colors, we face the flag or music (if we can’t see the flag being raised or lowered), and salute while in uniform; if in civvies, we just stand at attention until the music for Carry On is played.

Haha... I recall that when I was in 1-8 INF Battalion at Fort Carson, we were simply issued a card which had a number to the SDO desk, and the Company CQ, and numbers of a few local Cabbies in Colorado Springs!! What a beautiful area, too; Cheyenne Mountain, looks like a strange rendition of Mars, some mornings...

Regiment is usually 3 battalions, a brigade is 2 or more regiments ie Infantry, air mobile, cavalry, armor and I believe artillery

Regiment is a higher element, than brigade, not too bad.

When you salute to flag it's to building one. As that is where the main flag is placed. Also if you have groceries you have to drop them amd render proper respects. As a female if you have long hair it has to be up and not touching your collar at anytime. In most places I was stationed our millage pass was 100 miles, then you have to do the risk assessment for driving, mandatory fun and being volun-told to do things, if you are friends with a SM and they are an NCO and you are not you must stand in position of parade rest to speak to them when in Uniform. Sorry just a rant

So when not in uniform you still salute the colors? In the Corps, we come to the position of attention, but it's considered improper to salute when not in uniform. Just trying to clarify. I figured the directive would be DOD wide.

I was in the 80's and early 90's, don't recall having mandatory fun days or "battle buddy". I do recall being issued a pager when I took leave. Did have to inform my section chief where I was going and give a list of contacts. Oh we had Sgt's time every Wednesday (mandatory training).

According to regulations. As long as you have a weapon (firearms for civies) on your person, you are required to wear headgear. This includes from the moment you check you weapon out of the arms room till you turn it back in

When I was in the Army I wasn't required to have a battle buddy at regular duty station, I theoretically did have one. Presidio of San Francisco was Chris and in Germany was Snoop Doggy Moon.
