Did the ROE specify what can be inside your pillow? If it didn't then it sounds like the helmets were fair game!

Have you ever met a 2nd Lieutenant? or more commonly referred to as "boot" or "butterbar"? IF you had you would know that they can't read. And these kids aren't even that far yet

They are there to lead, not to read!

no, they are there to sign off on requisition forms and other paperwork nonsense. NCO's lead Officers read. I had the wonderful opportunity to witness a LARGE class of bootenants attempting to learn about the type of work I did in the Corps. Day 1 out of 15 I kicked 3 of them out of the building and had one of them placed under arrest for failure to comply. Day 2, the DIA agent who was in charge of them handed me a Challenge coin and told me to put the fear of god into them .
