This happened right down the street from me:
http://www.freep.com/article/20130305/N ... CFRONTPAGE

basically, airman at the local air force base walks into his old high school wearing his uniform (camo, flak jacket, holster with no gun in it) looking for a recommendation of some sort. Just his appearance causes a chain of events that shuts down the school and causes the cops to look for him..

should the airman be punished?

    I'm guessing he didn't get the letter of recommendation?

    place a phone call to the school asking for a meeting to be set up. That would have been my first thought.

    Are kids allowed to wear camo to school?

  • I don't know that he should get into any shit for it , but I definitely wouldn't be giving him any letter of recommendation. He doesn't seem like someone I would want for any position that called for rational thinking.

    Naw, over reaction. If you were in Green Bay this would happen every time someone walks in the building

    I agree with you.. But what if he had been a school shooter? no reaction would have started a shit storm..

    So, people are in a position where they must react.. which, in this situation seems like an over reaction..

    kind of a crazy world we live in

    mental note....next time you are out at the mall, or getting dinner or at the theater....and you see some army people in camo.....call the cops.

    I would :D

    then, school shooter type people would quit wearing camo (as to not draw attention). thus, making it perfectly fine to wear camo into a school again :D

    Are there rules and regulations for service people regarding wearing their uniforms out in public? Thought I heard 'field gear' was not allowed to be worn in public because it may cause 'a disturbance' or whatever.

    As Empty Glass mentioned, wouldn't a phone call be easier? Now I'm thinking he did it to get his name in the media which he probably hopes would help him get a job or whatever it is that he wants. :think:

    Hey, you wear those State Police boots all the time, and no one seems to make a scene...

    No

    We had so many Air Force, Navy, Army, and Marine recruiters in our high school on any given day you'd swear we were under martial law.

    Oh and all the ROTC kids and the officers walking around the college alarm me so much. :roll:

    You take so much flak whilst walking in a school :lol:

    Well, maybe from a group of dipshit kids

    :lol:

    I found my dad's flak jacket from when he was in the Air Force... I was bringing it to my truck to bring back to my place

    "What you got there?"

    That's serious when you get the "buster".

    He was probably afraid of me walking around town with a flak jacket on. I might have made the news.
  • No. Maybe he should have called first but it's too bad it has to be this way now.

    My brother was fire chief at selfridge a few years ago. In fact I'll be delivering tonight at waterside mall at 4 am.

    If dude was seeking a recommendation to be a paperweight then he shouldnt get in trouble and he should get the recommendation.

    :nono:
    I don't wear them all the time! and when was the last time you saw a cop wearing a PJ shirt?
    :lol:

    No

    those people are 'working' so they wear their camo/uniform.

    I did look up the regulations regarding wearing military camo in public, rules are governed by the base they are stationed at, but in general unless they are on duty/working, wearing camo in public is a no-no...but not like anybody is gonna enforce the rule.

    Yeah, he had to know he was gonna cause a scene. Camo alone without the holster and flak jacket, no big deal. He should be punished for being a dipshit, if nothing else. I'm sure my facebook wall is gonna be spammed with articles about this.
  • I've seen plenty of soldiers wearing their fatigues in public. Restaurants, stores etc.. I don't see anything wrong with that...

    Dude is nuts for showing up at 6am without an appointment, and the article even states the only person he talked to was a janitor and then a school councilor in the parking lot.

    How it went from that, to shutting the school down.....I think the school district is the stupid one here, no kids were even present.
