Similar to the E-2 question, how would you react to a young 2LT who is being unprofessional with a strong sense of entitlement?

When we were deployed to Vietnam, we had a newly minted Ensign come aboard. Nothing out of the ordinary with that as we took on a few new personnel while there. Anyway, we were on our way home and got to the International Dateline. These guys had flown over, so had not been initiated, so we commeced to do the Initiation. The Ensign raised hell about it and acted like it was beneath him, although other officers were initiated when we were going over. It got so bad that the Captain ( who did NOT go to the Acadamy, but instead was a Mustang ) secured the thing. When we got home, it was long before the Ensign was gone. My guess is that he did not get a good assignment.

find out his CO and have someone complain to the CO about this rude little sh!t

I'd tell my 1st sgt, he has a repor with the CO and the CO could talk to the Lt

As an old senior NCO I can say that I love these kinds of Lt's :-)

A healthy reminder about the things they believe they are untitled too are the very things the men in woman before them fought for them to enjoy today! So disrespect your privilege then your disrespecting the fallen before you

I have been in that situation before. You address them by their rank only never calling them "Sir". State that they are wrong and they need to fix themselves. As a Master-at-Arms or military police you have the responsibility and the authority to do so.

I've had this issue before. The way I handled it was I pulled him aside and explained to him how he was acting and how that kind of leadership will not gain the respect of his Soldiers. The second time I had to pull him aside I did it with his rater and gave him a stern one sided lecture with the UCMJ manual so he got the point. The second encounter fixed the problem.

Just figure he's a jagoff... don't worry he won't get too far up the chain of,command.

One of my current civilian managers is a relatively newly commissioned 2LT in the ARNG. Engineer or Artillery, forget which. He is very mature for his age and so far he has done well in his civilian job of management. Very proactive, able to tolerate repeated LT jokes without breaking into a rant, multi-tasks better than I could. He was a former NCO so I think that helps. Only ran into one bad Officer in my life while in uniform and it was a group opinion he sucked....had to write a statement on him and watch him get booted out of the service. That was an ackward moment for me.

I never reacted well, more than one was dismissed from service.
Most LT's were great but there are always a few that slip thru.
