Dear Half-Mast, Again and again the boys cry for a standard of inspe,'io"I.'Ic~12 They say they don't care a damn what standards are set, if only the battalion, group, post commanders and Ordnance inspectors wilt agree on what is and what is not meallt by the regulations. They also want a method of telling the difference and showing the score hetween a minor deficiency-such as a loose o'r missing glove-compartme1l1 latch-and a major deli,ie·nc11~f! such as being seriously low on oil or water. Or auy other deficiency like loose steering parts or leaky brake lines-the sort of deficiency which is a real hazard to the continued safe opera/tou of the vehicle. As of now, on most inspections, all gigs count alike, and the guy who never neglects the essentials looks just as bad on small jurlk as the meathead who shines like crazy but misses the vital parts.
