Drink effects - I was a Captain in UPT and thus assigned the dubious duty of class commander. Two 2/Lts came (crawled) out of the Reese AFB club one Friday night and were stopped by the Security Police. They were charged with "direct disobeying an order of the base commander - walking on the grass." Monday morning I reported to Col Dudley E. Fa***'s office and the two Lts were presented with Article 15 paperwork to sign. The Colonel asked me if I had any advice for the two officers that would prevent further occurrence and set an example for the base. I said - "Yes. I recommend they refuse to sign the Article 15s and request courts martial for walking on the grass." He kicked the three of us out of his office. It was a good thing the flight line instructors couldn't stand the HQ staff.

I must admit grass is hard to grow in Lubbock, TX.
