I have this ethical question for other Civil Air Patrol cadets.
I am flight sergeant and I keep catching a female basic cadet flirting with staff officers during break and calling them by their first names. The officers in staff don't even do anything about it and they just flirt back too. I feel very uneasy about this. When I corrected her, she told me she didn't have to address the officers because she was in her civies (she didn't wear her BDUs yet because she doesn't know how to put her insignias on :roll: ). Now I remember when I was a basic, if I so much called a staff member by just their last name, I get racked at. She probably thinks she could get away with everything since her dad is a senior member. Something just doesn't seem right. I know that my guts tell me that this totally messes up the professional image of CAP and customs and courtesies. Do I have any responsibility in this?
What should I do if higher ranking cadets are involved?
