Would an E9 comply if ordered to attention by an O1?

My question is what would happen if an LT.tried putting the SMA at attention, that my brothers and sisters in arms would be a show

Yes the E9 would comply but believe it will not end there

Yes, but later on the 2nd Lt. would get his ass chewed out by his CO

Yes. This actually happened to me when I was a young platoon leader. The Bn CSM called for my PSG to come to a meeting when my training meeting was going in. I sent word back by the CQ runner to let the CSM know he would be there when my training meeting was over (and since my training meeting was on the CO's training calendar I was obligated to conduct it); 10 mins later the Bn CSM kicks in my platoon room door, looks at me, points to my PSG and tells him to "collect his shit and get to his office now!" Then he turns to me and starts to tell me that When he calls for his PSGs I don't stop SFC ****** from coming, and- well that's where I stopped him. I was furious. I leaped up and even today can't remember all the things that came out of my mouth. I do however remember the very first words and they were "shut the fuck up and come to the position of attention!" At first he refused, but I gave him an ultimatum... do it or I call the MPs and file an official charge of disrespect and disobeying a lawful order. He did and I ripped into him for a good 2/3 mins. I made him announce in front of my PSG and SLs that he understood that I was an officer, that I outranked him and that he was wrong for disrespecting me. He was pissed, but what he didn't know about me was I had spend nearly 8 years enlisted so I wasn't a new, green LT and had witnessed the treatment CSMs gave LTs in the pass. Yeah, of course he ran his candy ass to BC, my CO and I were in his office 20 mins later, but when I explained what went down the BC yelled at both of us for a few mins and send us packing.

I did my last 7 years at ft.benning ga with the 36th engineer group. The only time we saw our CSM was on Thursday's in the motor pool and at this he had his head so far up battalion commander ass he carried a bottle of Windex so he could clean battalion commander's stomach off so he could he see where he was going. Now I did have few good CSM in my career.

CSM would probably comply, but that butterbar would get his ass reamed by that Battalion or Brigade XO and CO.. And that would probably be a death blow to his career for screwing with a guy that has 26 years in service, considering he probably has 2 years in as a 2LT..

The LT may get skull fucked

Oh my lord I seriously suspect all hell would break loose

2d lt would hate his life

Only at first... but afterward, watch out!

Yed

I think so BUT, the upper brass would hear of it post haste! And the next liberty ?????????

Don't think so in small group, to save face of his unit yes.

Yes!

The E9 would stand at attention and then blast the O1 from here to Timbuktu and back. There is not an O4 and above alive that would not b
thoroughly back the SGM.

Yes, rank is rank, chain of comand

To answer the question, affirmative, an officer's ranks out ranks an enlisted rank. History goes back since the birth of the Army. However, the O1 with respect to the CSM, should and must realize that a CSM rank has more time in service with more experience while he or she was still in pampers socking their thumb. Given the authority and responsibilities does make make one always correct as an officer. E-5 thru E--9's are the check and balances of the army. These ranks are to ensure orders are given and followed. Regardless if agree or disagree. As an officer 1st, 2nd Lt or Cpt. Realize that a MSGT 1st Sgt, SM, or CSM, has more experience and at times advice and correct your decisions. (So that you can look good).

By rank a SGM has to comply. But a CSM holds a higher office. Anyone lower ranked than O-4 will not even try it with a CSM mainly because they're the right hand to their boss the O-5 or above. Not to mention Officers generally stay out of NCO business just as NCOs stay out of Officer business.

I doubt it would be taken very seriously.

He would comply then in one-on-one educate the young lieutenant.

Not quite a baby-face LT story but still bears repeating.
Years ago I was at a gas station on a Naval Weapons Station. A few people were utilizing the gas pumps. One a Seabee from the neighboring NCBC, another was a fleet officer. Both were in uniform, the Ensign wearing his cover, the Seabee was not. The ensign called out "shipmate", the Seabee ignored him. The ensign again called out shipmate, again, the Seabee ignored him. Frustrated l, the ensign marched over and started reaming out the Seabee chief for not responding to his call of shipmate, then continued for not wearing his cover. The chief calmly finished pumping his gas, paid for his gas and drove away.
Moral of the story? Know who you are talking to. Call a Seabee shipmate? You will get ignored.

Yup, the law is the law, let's hope second Louie is not a raving dick (been known to happen). Moving on...

I use to work in the command group of my battalion and anytime any LTs or CPTs were getting chewed out by our CSM they stood at parade rest

Its the rank you respect not the man commissioned and warrant have that right non commissioned will comply.

Yes it's called respect for the rank

He should comply with the order but the XO and CO would be visited immediately after the disrespectful public humiliation!

Yes he has to comply,

I can only speak as to how my father handled a similar circumstance, as a senior master sargent in the Air Force. And that was to throw the lieutenant out of his office until he understud the meaning of seniority. And I do mean he threw him "physically" out.

He would have to because of the enlisted - officer protocol but I'm sure that there would be something said in private !!

Comply, afterwards tear him a new a$$!
