They should receive office hours. In today's military that would most likely end their careers.
Sorry, but an Article 15 (aka, office hours) wouldn't put a dent in a military career. If anything, it would be political correctness that did it.
Somehow, many good field Marines have Art 15 entries in their SRBs (page 12?), and I've known many with more than one.
The multiple offenders lost out on a Good Conduct medal and delayed promotions.
When it came time for me to re-up (1969), one of the "bennies" offered to me was to wipe clean my SRB entry on page 12.

You speak of the Marine Corps that you and I belonged to. That Marine Corps is gone. You have a large surplus of people trying to get in, couple that with the fact that the Marine Corps has to get down to 176,000 (or so) and in today's Marine Corps (and military in general), they are looking for reasons to force people out who want to stay in. Look at the new policy concerning tatoos. What does a tatoo on your forearm have to do with whether you are a good Marine or not? Answer, it doesn't. It's just another way to make the decision easier to force out well qualified Marines because of government mandated force reductions.
