Field Day Inspection Video Shows One Of The Worst Things About Life As An Enlisted Marine

These NCOs got off easy. I am sure there is more to this story. We dont even know how the initial inspection went. It could of been that much of a disaster that after thorough instruction the reinspection should of been perfect. Perhaps they needed more training in how to square away a room.
If there was as much energy spent into attention to detail rather than whining, that room would of been spot on. I have stories for days on field day. Water marks on surfaces, paper towel dust, dust on the inside drawer track, not so shiny brass, ect... I can go on.
Point is, there is a bigger picture. Can you square away a room with attention to detail. You will treat your job, your Marines, and uphold the standard in the same manner. These NCOs have alot to learn.

I've had room inspections before but my roommate was lazy, food all over her bed, kitchen was screwy and so was the bathroom. I for one always had everything squared away because I was never there; the command knew and the front desk knew I was married and stayed off base in an apartment. My bed, closet and everything was clean (I even went in for a couple hours just to tidy up some things including dusting. We had an inspection and got hit enough to have to be in dress whites for another inspection. I went back up to the front desk and told them I didn't live in that barracks room anymore and I wanted to be removed from it. Slowly they did remove me. They petty officer/chief knew I stayed off base so he mostly got onto my roommate. Still, the room was horrible; no matter what I did, it would be torn all to hell.

Field day inspections were always trial by fire. I recall that I was generally working in my squadron's work spaces while my barrack's room was inspected but I recall a few times a SgtMaj might make an unannounced walk through on Sat. morning.
