As a senior in the Military I have gone through the phases of promotion and understand rank structure. My issue is why do Soldiers now a days think they can talk to or speak to senior non-commissioned officers like we are their friends. How do you all deal with these situations in today's Army? I just want to smoke them like the old days but can't do things like that anymore just have to write a counseling now because that will teach them their lesson.

Perhaps you should check out the moral values the general populace of the USA has today. We live in a "oh well anything goes" society and it's probably bleeding over into the military ranks as well.

The world has changed in the civilian world also. I don't see it changing back in my lifetime. Some of change is good some not so good.

I had one E2 talk to me disprectfully in my first assignment, I had another tell me, 'do you know what he said?, look at your rank man.' I then went back and he said 'I thought I told you..' I said,'uh, check your rank and mine, son' Then went to his superior. That was all there was to it. Today though? I would play it the same. If I got written up? Well that's another post.
