Sorry pointious the RM do have a very strong use of the chain of command but if somebody is a idiot is seems to be fair do's that you give them a smack so they understand there stupidity.
They also don't mince words when confronted with someone that doesn't seem to get straight talk.
There was a RM Captain doing the post volcano bring back of people from Europe with the RN and after giving a statement about who was getting on some daft bint started going on about her particular situation. He let her finish and simply said
"have you got a movement order from the embassy?"
"err no, which is what I have just been telling you"
"well obviously your not getting on then, didn't you listen?"
