I know that many of you have had or seen dozens of NCOERs. Has anyone ever encountered an NCO with a 5/5 and if so what kind of behavior(s) warranted a 5/5 rating?

Did you ever receive monthly or quarterly counselling of any kind at all?

I've only ever seen it for drugs, DUI, assault, SHARP/EO violations, etc...

I had an NCO who got in a fight in an off post bar at closing time in uniform. Before he was arrested, he beat up a dude and his girlfriend after some words were exchanged and both had had too many beverages.
By my reckoning, he broke a half-dozen UCMJ articles in the process, and when he came to my office to face the music, he didn't think he'd done anything wrong.
The commander decided not to press charges, not wanting to screw up his pending commissioning as an officer. But his NCOER reflected "no" in Honor under Army Values, NI-some in leadership with supporting bullets, NI-much in responsibility and accountability, overall Marginal rating, and a 5/5.

It still pisses me off that the BC did not throw the book at him.

The closest I have ever seen is an NCO I gave a 4/4 to.
