I was a PFC Platoon RTO in the 82D. We did some training in VA and were on a Trailways bus back to Bragg. I took a thick marker and wrote "Show Us Your Tits!" on a large piece of paper. I'll be DAMNED! It WORKED! Some chick that was a passenger of a car actually did it! The bus went CrAzY! In a matter of minutes, everyone had the same sign on their window. When we finally got to the Post Gate, The Installation CSM and My Brigade CSM were waiting for us. A retired COL was traveling with his wife and Grandkids and saw all the signs. He called Trailways with the Bus#, then the Bragg Provost Marshall, then the Bragg Installation Commander.
I fessed up and took all the blame. I did 45 days of Additional Duty with the Brigade CSM. It was worth every minute! I was a freaking HERO in the Company!

As a 1SG I had to report to the Fort Campbell Post Commander and CSM for calling a dirtbag an oxygen thief . It appears that he cried to his momma, who called her congress man, who called the CG. I showed the CG and CSM his packet and that I was trying to get him out but the process was to slow, got chewed out and then CSM made a few phone calls, dirtbag was gone in a few days. Yes I would do it again.

Tsgt Kenna, I sense contention in your comment. Quite obviously the weed alone most likely did not cause his brother (or him, whoever was driving) to kill the both of them, but I am sure the unfortunate private's enjoying getting stoned on weed, pills, booze, and misc. mind altertering substances did. I said weed and pills in the generic sense. I can't speak for you, but I saw lot's of guys f'd up on a combo of weed and other crap, and they were pretty much out of it.

Sorry for the confusion here. It sounds like Tsgt Keena, when saying "got to watch out for that deadly weed" was downplaying it's effect on people. I don't think marajuana is, by itself, deadly....and I don't think Tsgt Keena does either. But what I can say is that the "stoner" types I knew in the army (luckily few in number in my units) did not just smoke weed, they smoked it and ate, drank, and mixed whatever they could to get a buzz on, including entire bottles of Robitussin from the despensary. It is my humble option that the late private's life ended early, in part, due to his affinity for weed,whiskey, quaaludes....whatever would fry his melon.

This one time, in Iraq, our CO was "too busy" to stage his own gear in the motor pool for customs inspection prior to leaving theater, so he tasked me to handle this chore for him. I took up a collection and imagine his surprise when during the inspection the very attractive young female customs agent opened his footlocker to find an assortment of sex toys, lady's under garments and porn mags..... Yeah, I got my ass chewed for it, but it was totally worth it.

I packed my 1SG bag with porn and frozen opened cans of mustard sardines. Needless to say the 90 days in a shipping container they were ripe as hell when we returned.
