Concerning Selfies and Salutes: America's Sergeant Major

The Sergeant Major has a really good piece on the subject of the Soldier who took a selfie while dodging afternoon retreat/colors in her car. I have read stuff on how she should be court martialed and dishonorably discharged. The Sergeant Major does a sterling job of putting things into perspective.
The best paragraph is as follows:

"Here's a little secret: most military types who say they never ducked colors are probably lying. There are all kinds of ways to do it. The most common way is to haul ass to wherever you're headed around 1700. Another is to hide indoors until it's over. This isn't uncommon."
