Sergeant Major Wants To Talk To You

[@kneeyul]

Man, the switch from asking questions about family & leave to WELL WHILE YOU WERE RELAXING brought back too many memories.

[@AE-pv9vc]

Always a trap lol

[@smtxs9274]

It gave me that sinking feeling

[@gunslin33able]

I know right !!!! Brought memories lol

[@freddyj1728]

😂😂

[@Generichjm]

THE HOLIDAYS? WHO CELEBRATES THAT?

[@joescott4126]

At least the only bunnies he found were the dust type....

[@dashingdahlias8873]

Not according to that "Leave the door open" policy. It ain't no fire hazard, even though you got a couple of soldiers burning down at sick call

[@Generichjm]

And lots of orphans

[@BLACKIFUNNYUSER]

Why do the men get in trouble but not the bunnies

[@MrPlainsflyer]

The Sgt major going from "checking in" to "chewing out" in 0.2 seconds😂

[@rh906]

Because it was always a trap.

[@diegovega2036]

You 100% nailed it here. I know because out of habit my eyes glazed over and I dissociated until CSM was done lol.

[@Jersey2tall86]

🤣😂

[@nathasix3334]

CSM never uses his leave. Every OCT he has the max use or lose. He may not even use his leave when he retires (if he retires)

[@michaelhansen2818]

"If"

Whoa October first, you mean congress’s due date for a budget? (Not you people)

[@lucimitchell7273]

This stupid video got a bunch of emotions out of me.

[@polithub9439]

SAME

[@briancolyer4947]

Chief, I’d say a large portion of us that watch your videos are retired or prior service. All I have to ask is, dude, how do you do it? How do you do it so perfectly, that even though I’m retired, listening to CSM literally catapults me right back to when I was an E7 and listening to this guy knit pick literally everything about the enlisted leadership. Dude, you do such a good job that it’s literally frightening. My other question is, what NCO rank were you before you transitioned to Warrant. Thanks again, and most excellent job sir.

[@randomboomerang2787]

I'd (Hoo-ah) actually love an answer (Hoo-ah) to this question (Hoo-ah)

[@briguy459]

It's Sir, you boot-licker.

[@robertmatthews2154]

I believe he mentioned before that he was an E6 before he went to WOCS

[@briancolyer4947]

@ thanks for the reply!

[@multisam8717]

I swear I've heard this same exact speech before.

[@Hell_Hound_Actual]

I could swear I've given almost this exact same speech before, but I wasn't a SNCO, I was an NCO. If you can't be trusted with something as simple as keeping your issued barracks in inspection order, then how can you be trusted with anything even remotely more important, let alone more complicated?

[@Jay-kf3od]

We all have.

[@mc-zy7ju]

when you take vacation knowing all the crap piling up is going to hit you like a tidal wave when you get back and pretty much negate any r&r you got.

Sergeant Major I got a shaving profile

[@Armyguy91]

Slacker.😂😂🤣😂

[@Oll1000]

now you also got a front leaning rest profile, he-ro. Get to it, hooah

[@topher174]

Funny that I thought the USMC was completely different than the Army. I stand corrected.

[@christian_bushcraft1490]

Great video, and let's be honest, spot on. You know SGT Johnson is violating that profile.

[@Jonb173]

“We bout to put a sign in sheet at the doggone CQ desk for you jokers to sign in so CSM know who do their checks”

[@civ34]

Oh god not the oak tree counseling. I forgot all about them

[@pierreaudiffred3703]

God... this brought back some long dormant emotions... -_-

[@RuralTimeKeep]

Reminds me of why I got out. Lol. They always wonder, “why is retention so low?” Lol

[@makvande576]

How much am I getting paid to get treated like this again?

[@jessies9081]

The..... ACCURACY! Unprecedented

[@crystalrock18]

It’s videos like this that make me realize I’m glad I got out.

[@siegfriedfairless2003]

"letting the fur fly!" Is my new favourite saying 😅😅, can't wait to grip the Toms with this 😅

[@ericgeesey9817]

Imagine every Sgt there sending out texts to their troops afterwards. In my time, Sgt would have to call their barracks senior squaddie to knock on doors.

[@richarddelgado796]

The damn barracks. I do not miss having to walk through the barracks on the weekends.

[@rustyshackelford2349]

I was served 1996-2005 made E-5 in 1999. i was an E-6 when i got out. Never once had to walk through the barracks on a weekend unless I was on staff duty

[@gamingborger]

CSM, you know damn well what was goin on in there and why that door was closed but ain't no one snitchin

[@Hell_Hound_Actual]

I see the dust bunnies weren't the only bunnies in there.

[@kylestobaugh4724]

I can't help but notice that CSM is never wearing his uniform top. What does he think this is? A day at the beach? We just not upholding the standard anymore HOOAH? Doggone crazy SNCOs man...what else? Sincerely, An old SPC.

[@Mythix-net]

Why is this so good. The "What Else" was perfect man hahaha.

[@andrewcappiello5585]

Staff Duty NCO's and doggone CQ's better get hot or get a water source. Everyone trackin'?

[@Hell_Hound_Actual]

Trackin', Sergeant Major... Oh, wait... Um.. Why am I even here? I got out as an NCO back in 2013.

[@fhistleb]

Oh god... When he started yelling I did a deep inhale and eye roll. My guy, you may be a lil too good at this.

[@omarrp14]

A true CSM would have said Playbox 360. When referring the high value items

[@calvinwalters1556]

Sargent majors really hate it went barracks rooms that are in use look like someone lives there.

[@Factopcalypse]

Well that just took me back 14 years! AT Eeeeezzzzzzzzz!!

[@chaffcutter58.]

Great work Chief.

[@constitutionalist6817]

"...What else?" 😂

[@sixbrigands]

Those dust bunnies just keep getting bigger and more vicious

[@mightymikethebear]

I doubt the troops will ever win the battle against the dust bunnies.

[@elchapojrkimgofthetrap2180]

You joke but most of these really happened in my unit, like my former 1sgt tried putting a rule in place for GROWN MEN!!! That we needed to get permission from our squad leader or above to have a woman in our barracks room.

[@cdrtej]

Get married and move out

[@MarcosElMalo2]

Next thing you know, they’ll be confiscating your fleshlight.

[@andyinmotion6877]

In Korea 94’, we had male/female floors. No one was allowed an opposite sex person in their room unless it was escorted, official business. I got an Art15 for that one.

[@scoldeddogproduction]

I can't believe anyone would want to do this when they're in their 30's. What kind of life have you chosen to be a babysitter for a living?

[@gunslin33able]

I knew it was coming that how my Frist Sgt & Sgt. Major was

[@jonathanhauser4201]

0400….will he have his spit cup with him? 😂😂😂😂😂

[@Orca19904]

You wanna be the one to tell Sergeant Major there's no tobacco allowed inside the barracks? Even an LT might think twice about that.

[@jonathanhauser4201]

@ Agreed lok

[@jonathanhauser4201]

*lol

[@craigw6557]

Thank god for the DD214. I hated this shit. Catch hell after your CQ shift because no one else gaf, and CSM had nothing better too do because his kids and both ex-wives couldn't stand his ass. Not this CSM, though....

[@petehaack5228]

Years ago, as an Officer in the 82nd, they would have us do health and welfare checks in the barracks. They had the Enlisted standing at parade rest outside their rooms with all the dresser drawers staggered open, etc. I would walk in, just stare at the ceiling for a few minutes and then walk out. I didn't look at sh*t. Always hated doing those and felt terrible invading their privacy. Pretty much all of the Officers did the same. Different times, I guess.

[@Armyguy91]

Oh, Hell. I thought the SGM was going to say the "Their Freak Flag was flying." Hope everyone had a Safe and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. 🫡🫡🫡🫡

[@salamiflavoredspider]

Not me in Korea no-knock raiding other barracks rooms with airsoft guns while dudes are just trying to chill and play WoW.

But SGT Major letting soldiers in barracks run around like lord of fly’s is what makes them happy

[@andrewodom6158]

That reminds me why I got out of the Army

[@TheDraco877]

when I was overseas at one point "CSM wanted to talk to me" and I had been put with a different section for a little bit. My temp first line was freaking out, and that spooked me. He just wanted me to look at his personal laptop. so that sgt had me worrying over nothing.

[@zacharyjames9602]

This guy makes Captain Sobel seem nice!😅

[@mightymikethebear]

That may be true but I would go to a combat zone with CSM.

1st duty station 1996 Kaiserslautern, Germany, high dollar item sheet wasnt a thing, leaving barracks doors open when another soldier was in your room wasnt a thing and having a NCO walk through over a weekend rarly happen. Different type of Army back then especially OCONUS, I pcs'd back to the states in 1999. Army life sucked lol

Crazy that we needed high dollar item sheets in barracks. Makes you question why they even bother with LDRSHIP

[@gsmith4295]

Man... I swear you just pulled that speech straight out of a time capsule labeled "1989... open at your own risk". These were some of the exact words Top would use back then

[@AfghanVet8888]

That's why you make sure your leave is at least one day after everyone gets back.

[@jamesdc9595]

Make sure you have a High Dollar Value Item sheet in your barracks room. No, the Army won’t reimburse you if any of those items are stolen or damaged, but you need to have it. And make sure you prop your door open when you have a visitor but also secure your door so someone can’t just walk in.

[@polithub9439]

The only thing that would piss me off is the unsecured doors. Some on duty SNCO or officer walking into my marine's room so that I gotta hear about their unsat room or multiple unauthorized items or underage cigs/alcohol when I get back. I'd sooner get in your ass about the door than the underage alcohol. 1. that would make me a massive hypocrite. 2. you gotta learn how to play the game. how to do wrong right.

[@AfghanVet8888]

I always like to remind everyone about standards. Like how every federal building is tobacco free.

[@tommy_noble]

[@chadgriffith-e3y]

I have personally filled out those stupid high dollar item sheets. But can anyone honestly tell me what the hell those stupid sheets actually do?

[@Hell_Hound_Actual]

@chadgriffith It helps MPs know what to steal... er... I mean, what they are responsible for securing that doesn't fall under a PL 1, 2, 3, or 4 resource.

[@chadgriffith-e3y]

@ So it doesn’t actually do shit… Got it…

[@Hell_Hound_Actual]

@@chadgriffith-e3y I mean, it did when I was in Security Forces, but that's probably because I actually used it to find people's stolen items and saw personally that it was returned to them. Then again, I also cross-trained out of Security Forces and into Special Operations Weather Team and then was more focused on deployments and training constantly until I got out in 2013. But other than that, yeah, you're right.
