I guess I am a little frustrated. If you make a correction on a Soldier, why do they feel the need to justify what they are doing wrong or why their uniform is wrong or even argue with you? I am by no means a perfect NCO, we all need adjustments at times. The need to argue or the attempt to seem disrespectful is not needed. Even if the person making the correction may not be correct there is no need to make a scene out of it, just say "Roger" make the change and move out. If you feel they were incorrect look it up and if you know where they can be located tactfully present them the regulation and then help educate them. Why are we so afraid of receiving constructive criticism. It is all about becoming a professional. Even professional atheletes have bad days and their coaches help them. I find it funny how some soldiers want to pick and chose some of the new changes in AR 670-1 because it benefits them and already have adapted to it but the ones they dont like they want to continue to dismiss.

Being able to accept a correction (or professional criticism for that matter) is a sign of character...having said that, I would have to also say that the inability to accept these things may very well be a character flaw; but one that can be improved upon. Keep doing the right thing; if you are correct and have properly interpreted the applicable regulation and are professional and respectful in your actions when pointing out the deficiency, you have nothing to worry about and you'll just have to let the frustration go. You did your job. Period.
