When I was in Zumwalt did away with liberty cards. Has the Navy brought them back?
He also did away with Cinderella Liberty.
I was in the Marine Infantry. They love to require you to have a liberty card. We even had to adhere to the "buddy system" which meant you were not allowed off base by yourself. We had week night Cinderella liberty and 2 am on weekends. I routinely ignored this B.S. If you did get a liberty card you were supposed to check out and check in with your buddy. Of course this created problems.
The majority of the Marine Corps did not have to deal with this silliness. I got out after 4 years. I could not lateral move into another MOS because mine was "short". More B.S.
