I had started to post earlier that, having once been a secretary for the US Navy (GS), I was concerned about the lack of the SSIC, and the typists initials, as well as the Subject not being capitalized on this memo. However, since I was unsure about Army regulations regarding correspondence, I did not post...glad to see someone knowledgeable about Army correspondence picked it up.
I am from the Air Force side of the House and I saw so much wrong with these that I cannot believe -- this afternoon is the first time I have been on the computer to look.
There is a glaring omission -- USAF, USAFR, or ANG are missing from behind the rank.
Well, so far, only 3 people have noticed the lack of an SSIC number on the letter.
The fact that it slipped by the "reporters" at CBS shows how non-military Dan-the-Newsman is.
