They realized that they are from the same home town, played in the same band in different time frames. The SIT makes the comment to the Pharmacist about not being able to play his saxaphone. The pharmacist owns a saxaphone so he offers to lend him the saxaphone. A couple of weeks pass by and the pharmacist notices that the SIT has not made contact with him. So the pharmacist calls his unit, and finds out that the SIT pawned his saxaphone and went AWOL. The pharmacist calls the MP’s and report his missing saxaphone. An investigation was conducted. Outcome: Pharmacist was charged with improper association and received a Letter of Concern. And he spent $300.00 to get his saxaphone out of the Pawn Shop.

Classroom Disturbance Situation: Mr. J is a civilian instructor for Initial Entry Training. During a training session, one of Mr. J’s soldiers talked back to him in a disrespectful manner. Mr. J had previously had problems with this soldier and decided to make an example of him in front of the other soldiers. Mr. J approached the soldier and grabbed him by the left ear and pulled him to the front of the class. Mr. J then required the soldier to do push-ups with the entire class counting out the repetitions. Finally, once the soldier had completed the required number of push-ups, Mr. J told the soldier to “Get your fat ass back to your seat.”
