These are the qualities that caused the massive flaws of this game that even the most senior bosses of the company that made it now call 'diappointing'.

Higher ranking females are refered to as sir in the army.

It's "Rakkasan Ma'am" when I see female officers. 

Also when I went through OSUT at Knox 515 was a BCT troop. Of course I don't know how the do it up in TRADOC/HRC world...

Did you even graduate basic man?

They don't do basic in knox  are you serious?

Yeah they don't do basic in knox anymore and havent for over 2 years

That's another fubar man. I've had guys come from Knox that have only been in the Army for about a year ;). 

Advanced combat training and basic are 2 different things.

Scouts and Tankers did OSUT at Knox. Which is basicly 16wks of BCT/AIT rolled into one mess.You simply have no clue as to what you're talking about.

Yep, glad to see so many correcting this.  They did it right, Sir was the proper term if wanted to state it that way.  You can say Sir or Ma'am as some point out but you aren't like just flat out wrong to say Sir to both.  I was in the Army long ago though, rather not date myself, haha.

LOL, Are you really trying to tell us you called female officers 'sir'?

Yes.

I must watch too much sci-fi.  I was under the impression that higher-ranked female officers were refered to as "Sir" in any military.  Of course, I watch a lot of Star Trek and Battlestar Galactica, and I have never served in the military, so don't take my word for it!

It sounds like it might depend on where you are, and who you serve under.

 

Anyway, this is the most action SWTOR has gotten since release!  Keep the discussion going!

In the countries I know of, gender plays a role in calling an officer sir/ma'am.  In the some fictional worlds, the term "sir" is used as a unisex title.  However, this thread already looks like a baiting/trolling thread, so not sure why others are trying to argue the OP.

IDK abot him but I did. Never got 1 dirty look for it either.

It isn't an insult, no matter how badly you want it to be.  It is a sign of respect, Sir or Ma'am either one go.

I'm a her not a him :P

On the stuff to do with NCOs and COs.  Very common joke to say NCOs earned their rank and work for a living and yes that is meant to imply bad things about COs, lol.  I freely admit to having more distrust for butter bars than any other rank, I would expect more competence out of Privates than them :P

USAF Jag Corp, 2006 here. Since you don't seem to recall, I'll copied a link to the Army Command Policy, 600-20. Female Offiers are refferred to as Ma'am. Not Sir...ever. 

 

 

4-18.     A soldier addressing a higher ranking officer uses the word sir or ma'am in the same manner as a polite civilian speaking with a person to whom he wishes to show respect. In the military service, the matter of who says sir or ma'am to whom is clearly defined; in civilian life it is largely a matter of discretion. In the case of NCOs and soldiers, we address them by their rank because they've earned that rank.

Okay so I don't know much about the military but I just have a funny observation...

"In the case of NCOs and soldiers, we address them by their rank because they've earned that rank."

Is that trying to imply that commissioned officers didn't "earn" their rank? Is that like a secret hidden jab against commissioned officers? Aren't like Captains/Majors/Colonels/Generals all commissioned officers? So they didnt' "earn" the rank?

 

Yes, yes it is.. and any enlisted man will smile at that.

OSUT = One stop unit training

 

it was in the past at least Basic + AIT all put together into one, so basically those who has MOS with OSUT had extra long basic since you were treated that way the whole time as opposed to the usual 8 week basic.

Medals, and Specializations are not required you can get them, however it's not something that I liked (The army experience) so i just kept my head down tell my term was up.

Also saying you were in and showing proof are 2 diff things

However is osut is a full basic and Ait experience it was a 3+ month thing which mean basic could have ended 1.5 months prior making it late dec 2010.

That's another fubar man. I've had guys come from Knox that have only been in the Army for about a year ;). 

Advanced combat training and basic are 2 different things.

Scouts and Tankers did OSUT at Knox. Which is basicly 16wks of BCT/AIT rolled into one mess.You simply have no clue as to what you're talking about. 

I cant find anything on osut after jan of 2011? Source please

Posting your DD214 doesn't mean you're not right in this. Calling a female officer sir will make your day end badly, atleast at Ft Campbell...

11. Says nothing follows and 13 says he was only awarded the NDSM. Granted I haven't seen very many DD214 but did he even complete BCT? He also dosen't have any SGLI?

Medals, and Specializations are not required you can get them, however it's not something that I liked (The army experience) so i just kept my head down tell my term was up.

Also saying you were in and showing proof are 2 diff things

not really much "proof" there... search google images for dd214 see how many you get... now post a picture with you holding it and your name on the forums on a sticky note on the dd214 that's a differn't story:) not saying I dont believe you just saying posting a dd214 like that is hardly proof

I angered the clerk in a clothing shop today. She asked me what size I was and I said actual, because I am not to scale. I like vending machines 'cause snacks are better when they fall. If I buy a candy bar at a store, oftentimes, I will drop it... so that it achieves its maximum flavor potential. --Mitch Hedberg

If you watch a game, it’s fun. If you play it, it’s recreation. If you work at it, it’s FF-XIV.
