Sheffey responded with a video on Instagram on Tuesday and expressed regret. But she stopped short of apologizing for her actions:

“I seriously just want to say thank you to everybody who stood up to me today, like seriously. That s--- to me was not that serious. I am not a disrespectful soldier and I really appreciate you all.”
 
It wasn't a personal attack, chill out, unless you want to guarantee everyone there was top notch.

No I'm not claiming everyone under First Army is top notch by any means. I do find it ironic that this very thread about soldiers disrespecting and being unprofessional where people get up in arms, can turn around and be disrespectful and unprofessional when discussing First Army and blanketing their trainers as useless cunts.

Come on JAB, apples and oranges there bud.
 
At least things were getting better, I don't want to end things on the downslide. I want to stay in, but I hate where we're headed. But, I'd commit hari fucking kari if we went to war in the next 10 years and I wasn't in on it... :-/

Word for word, this is how I feel. I'm shopping new units with better priority and motivation as we speak.

One of the men commenting on her behavior in the articles had it right when he said, "If she won't salute it, she sure won't fight for it." She is a pathetic POS.
 
Wrong, we need to expose these fucks in order for them to be corrected, otherwise this rot will spread at an exponential rate.
This is part of the problem though, brother. People figure their command will just cover it up. The result of that is all the other shitheads realize they can get away with it too. It's a failure of leadership to come into cases like this with the mindset of, "Handle it at the lowest level possible.". That shit doesn't work with people like that QM, the Security Forces Airman, or the Honor Guard fucks. They need to be made examples so all their little buddies know what happens when you disrespect your oath and the uniform. You should be proud to wear the uniform each and every day and should be going out of your way to honorably represent it, the flag, and those who came before us. These disrespectful pieces of shit have no place in the military and don't deserve the honorable reputation that comes with the uniform. That reputation was, and continues to be, earned by men and women far better than they will ever be. They should be exposed, punished harshly, and unceremoniously dumped outside the nearest main gate. Fuck 'em.
I agree 100% with both of you.
My comment was based more on the idea that for every 1 person who thinks like we do, how many others will pop up in support of these dick snots?
 
Few that count, I'd guess most of her support comes from non-military associates.

Or clowns of the same ilk in the Military that we can help crush.

Not sure what may have changed, but I can tell you I personally know and worked with a lot of the First Army trainers out of Camp Shelby, and would strongly disagree that they are cunts or that the training they provide is useless. A majority of them have 3+ deployments and know a thing or two.

But I guess us cunts (yeah I was a First Army instructor) don't have the knowledge or experience of someone like yourself. :rolleyes:


I didn't see many deployment patches on the instructors in Shelby. Those people put my entire brigade at risk due to their incompetence and lack of knowledge. I'm not saying they were all like that but the majority were. The training was so substandard there was an official complaint laid by my CoC. My brigade sent an Infantry BN to NTC for a second time (after the "training" at Shelby) because there was no training value at all from Shelby.
You can get butthurt all you like but that was the reality of the situation when I was there.
