Casual reminder that the British repay their members for mess dress expenses.
i have 3 governing documents to read. Not one of them covers dress. I’m pretty sure I can manage to study those while some how not fussing over my DEUs.Absolute rubbish.
If you cannot be bothered to know what right looks like with your personal drill, dress, or deportment how can you be expected to achieve excellence when it counts? If you aren't reading the dress regs, standing orders, or are able to hunt down the policies needed for admin stuff; you're tipping your hand thar you aren't reading B-GL-× on doctrine, training, or any other number of important references in the performance of your duties.
I treat it the same as Van Halen did with their concert rider: they didn't give fuck about there being a bowl of only brown M&Ms on the table; they put it in there to see which promoters actually reas their rider. If they glossed over the M&Ms, did they do so with stage setup, pyrotechnics, or any other important detail that would have caused the show to suck or possibly get them hurt or sued.
If you're showing up out of dress, you didn't take the time to do your homework; that doesn't breed trust for me as either a superior or a subordinate.
