lets see, there is soo much wrong in this picture that cannot be excused, but chalk it up to pvts who think its ok to post foolishness to social media while in uniform and think thats ok, when Senior Ledership start cracking down on military personal posting what they do while off duty, they going to really regret even shareing that on social media.

There is at least two people wrong here, the one pictured and the one taking the picture.

<p>Social media will and has become the new UCMJ Darwin affect. The more places you have to display your hidden stupidity the more chances you have to be caught.</p><p> </p><p>What these individuals don't understand or don't care about, is the way their actions make the Military look. That's the part that angers me.</p>

Social media has become a huge problem for the military and we need to educate ourselves on professionalism and Facebook.
What troops do not know is that posting inappropriate photos and posts has a long-term effect. We are just now starting to see UCMJ actions, but civilian employers are beginning to see it as well resulting in a refusal to hire.
As leaders, we need to educate our troops and the negative impact it can have. Tell them to take down that "sexy" photos. Do not show off how drunk you can get. Do not use profane or offensive language.

ENS, from what I have experienced, they will not learn. only those that get caught and are punished will find out the ramifications of their actions... Then another knucklehead will emerge and we will debate and talk about their stupidity and we will continue to have this conversation for the next few years.

I saw a female smash her face against the ground in BCT because she was told to beat her face. I almost had an aneurysm I laughed so hard.

This is a pretty hot topic and it is getting way out of control. Leaders need to instill a greater sense of professionalism in our younger troops. There must be more emphasis placed on discipline and respect for the Army values. Start holding these younger soldiers accountable for their actions and you will see a change.

Honestly, I think we as a people just love a good show. We move from one outrage to the next, shaking our fists and decrying our society, but really we're just audience members on the Jerry Springer show. We boo, we taunt, but in the end, we love our entertainment.
There will continue to be drama because we seek it. It's entertaining...
