SSG Saunders:


For example, I remember being a WO1, and we had a fellow Warrant Officer abruptly ask the CW5 where was his deployment patch?


The CW5 ate his lunch; he was a Vietnam Veteran and transitioned from the Marines and unfortunately the Warrant Officer did not know his background.


The lessons learned is in general one has to be mindful of sacred ground.
