I know some of you don't like these vids...but I freeking "knew" this guy...only he was a Captain - the most hate-able SOB ever...spent more time publicly chewing out our company Gunny and pulling over his vehicle to correct Marines who dared not recognize the officer tag on his car and render a salute.

Our regs were flag officers only and above....and only when in a military vehicle with the tag displayed.

You're telling me the Corps requires the same for Captains and above??
 
I had one lecture me for 20 minutes on the importance of a good shoe shine in all of life's endeavors. Had another in my face for walking into III MAF disbursing in Danang with bushhat, dried paddy mud up to my knees, flak jacket and weapon condition 1...because I'd just hitchiked 8 klicks to straighten out a teammate's pay discrepancies (and load up on pogey-bait for my bros).

I was saved by a Major who knew there was a war going on.

To be fair, most o-1s are decent guys trying to hop on a moving train. But the stereotype is there, and the choice few exceptions guarantee it's not going away.
