SM lives in barracks because SM is not married.
SM stays off post with their partner.
SM usually packs required uniform(s) for the normal duty day.
SM shows up for First Formation in civilian clothes then changes to uniform that is put out before formation.
SM forgets to pack both long & short sleeve PT shirt.
SM is then required to wear duty uniform and miss PT.

They can do pt in uniform and be sweaty the rest of the day. Make sure they wouldn’t want to “forget” pts again.

I, personally, would make them show up early for a while, already in the proper uniform.
When was the uniform posted?
Why is this soldier showing up in civilian attire?
Can't the soldier bring OCP and full PT uniform every time?
This soldiers social life may be interfering with their readiness.

I always put it in writing. Paper trail is important if they create a habit of it. It also demonstrates your desire for their change, and safeguards further actions that you take. Counseling's can quickly become legal documentation.
Always ask yourself if this could also be a symptom of something else going on in the soldiers life. Ask them questions about other things to gain a full perspective of their weekend/ financial/ relationship/ etc. and the stress that may be present. Don't pamper them, but be aware.
Worst case scenario is a soldier that is going through some behavioral health issue that are borderline suicidal. ASK! BE TACTFUL!
I also sit down with the soldier and have them help with the plan of action. This helps them know why you administer certain actions. It its "their idea" then they wont fight it as much.

GOOD Grief- Is the SM normally squared away?. NO Sm is forced to miss PT unless they have a limiting profile. You can do PT in uniform. They can be forced to live in the barracks until the Coc feels they have atoned and learned. They can have their weekends filled with inspections,layouts etc. Until the point is made as corrective action. an NCO is own limited by the depth of their thinking.
