This shouldn't bother anyone to whom it applies.
And if you have your area policed, and someone else doesn't, and that's keeping you from using the "phone tent"...
Well, that's sort of a military tradition of peer pressure, too, eh?

I agree 100% if your area is not policed. But many soldiers far and away from the rank of private did not and still does not agree with the assesment of the camp being that dirty.
No, the whining statement does not bother me, but the fact that you implied it without knowing any of the individuals it has angered does, I have great respect for my husband and the entire chain of command that is in disagreement over what has happened even if you do not.
These are grown professional men, excuse me for also taking offense to people who are comparing soldiers that are expected to die for their country to teenagers cleaning up their rooms.

Maybe you ought to see some of these camps before you spout off. Yes, the camps need to be tidy, but you cannot keep them policed like the company area back on a regular installation. It ain't gonna happen!
And to have a RESERVE LTC dog out the Regulars on a holiday really stinks and was not needed.
Some of these mideast countries don't know what sanitary landfills are--they just take everything and haul it out into the desert where is might just blow right back.
These places are dirty and trashy naturally. Maybe the LTC should be reprimanded for disturbing the natural landscape.

Illbay, the LTC is supposed to make sure Logpac is called to take away the trash.
That's on the heads of the senior officers and NCO's.
Has nothing to do with policing one's AO.
