If there’s one thing the Marine Corps will never be in short supply of, it’s rules. There are regulations on how to lace your boots, what you can and cannot do while walking, what clothes you can wear while off duty, and numerous pages explaining how to wear your uniform or how your hair should be cut.

"There’s no actual rule against walking on the grass".......there are Rules, and then unspoken Rules. NO ONE walks on the grass in either the Army or Marine Corps. Will you be taken to Courts Martial no...will your NCO's find ways to make life suck that much more? YES!!! I also like how he added "America’s toughest service"....good try at a dig on others. I guess he didn't get the memo about First in, Last out being Army.

While the article is written well, the author did forget something. Just because it is not against the service wide regulations, does NOT mean it is not against CO/BN/BDE/DIV policies. So sure, walk on that grass.....don't bother with that reflective belt.....go ahead and park in your 1SG's parking spot.....and re-iterate to them that it is not against the regs.

SSG Warren Swan - They only stop as long as there is proper cover and concealment, so they can watch without being spotted.

SSG Warren Swan - When someone walks on the only grass located at FT Irwin and the Post CSM sees them.
