Should the Airmen in the TN Air Guard video have been punished so severely for their re-enlistment video?

No, I don’t.

PO1 Don Gulizia - One- maybe in your time Son was a no-no- I treated my troops like they were my kids- when I retired many came to see "Dad's" retreat. Your vote is your prerogative , I did not insult him- that's your call. And yes, my son is older, and my grandson is serving now. Also we had maybe 6 CPL's in my BN or BDE and a few of these were SVN Vet's who couldn't hang on to SGT.

SGM Bill Frazer - "That is maybe why you are a CPL?" That's what you said. That's not an insult? Okay. Also, using "son" in that manner was condescending in your day and it's condescending today.

I find it interesting that the attack came to me. I swore in 3 times so far. Reserves are slot based. Given my education and my desire to commission the folks up top didn't see a reason to have me taking up slots for others that only wanted to be enlisted. Secondly, I've had to sit through all the eo and sharp crap too many times and sensitivity training towards dudes that want to wear skirts and surgically shave their Adams apples. Frankly if they make mental disorders like that a spotlight showcase in our ranks, then it's not a stretch for this woman to say she identifies as a dinosaur and the colonel to fight the forced outing. My question was riddled with sarcasm because I find it ridiculous however I find the crap we have to look past as ridiculous. And it's also kind of crazy that LTCs Cops and a couple generals see beyond my rank and ask me to analyze strategy before they ask others that are only interested in career brown nosing and blue falconing. If you look at someone and only see rank as a function of their utility then I guaranty that you've exposed a major malfunction in your line of thinking. And for the record, it's the E4s that make everything happen in the army. Every NCO knows that. I motivate my soldiers up and down with mutual respect and utilization of their strengths and knowledge. Albert Einstein said everyone is a genius at something. You can carry your position about me all you like. It doesn't get you closer to the reality though. The second general order is something I believe important but is being gutted by all the eo, sharp, and inclusivity training. The culture of taking away a person's livelihood because someone else felt offended is ridiculous. To treat these folks as an example while letting porky pig that can't do their job and can't pass pt stay for 3 years is an upside down priority list.
