What is the maddest you became in uniform?

Andrews AFB, 1985. The American survivors from hijacked TWA Flight 847 were flown into Andrews for their return to US soil. The press was on hand and contained in a corral type area called the press pit. As the passengers were deplaning and beginning to walk past the pit, two "reporters" inside the pit began climbing over the fencing. Big nono. Myself and two other SP's, one a k-9 handler, refused to allow them over. We were shouted at by the two for preventing freedom of the press and were called pretty much everything from mindless baby killers to NAZI clones. No damn way was I going to allow those vultures to accost those people.
To give credit to most of the rest of the press in the pit, the majority appeared to be mortified or disgusted at the behavior of their peers.

To this day I refuse to watch anything from those two, Sam Donaldson and Maury Povitch.

While stationed in a Mechanized Unit in West Germany in December of 1984. The Battalion Commander was walking through the motor pool and saw a driver for an M-113 Armored Personnel Carrier greasing the hubs of the roadwheels with GAA (Grease, Automotive and Artillery). The grease that he was putting in was AMBER in color and what was pushing through was BLACK. The Battalion Commander got in his head that the BLACK Grease was contaminated, so he went and checked random hubs using a grease gun, and most exuded BLACK grease, leading him to believe that most of the road wheels in the Battalion were full of contaminated grease. He called a Battalion Alert, call out roster the whole 9 yards and ordered that we break the seal on every road wheel hub, pull out the bearings, clean them with dry cleaning solvent and repack them with AMBER Grease.
He did not know that GAA comes in TWO colors, AMBER and BLACK, and that nearly all the GAA the Battalion had in the POL yard was BLACK Grease. We ended up in the snow for two days, because ONE MAN, who had the authority was wrong and not one single person, especially the Maintenance Officer had the "Testicular Fortitude" to explain to him that GAA, new from the can was mostly BLACK.

I was the POL NCOIC at Ft. Leavenworth and our underground fiberglass JP8 tanks had been taken offline due to high fiberglass contamination on the same day General Shinseki was flying in to give a speech. I was ordered to issue fuel into his aircraft even after i kindly explained to the good Major I could not issue the fuel per DESC. Needless to say, the Garrison Commander had to come down to the airfield and stand the Major down.
