They really don't realize that they don't actually have authority until they're commissioned, right?
Silly ROTC cadets... I had one talking while I was teaching a class on something... First Aid, I think it was...
and I asked him politely to hold his conversation until after the class.. little 19 year old rolled his eyes at me and kept talking. I effectively removed him from my class and told him to put his nose in a book somewhere. He didn't have authority until he was commissioned and I would council him in a second.
I'll ask nice once. After that, the stripes start talking.
