Actually more important to get along with the PC and OC during
NS. The RSM, for a large camp, you only get
to see him on duty days, and sometimes at the senior NCO mess (before the new rank system). Duty days… just be
on the ball for the 24 hours and you will be alright. In the mess,
everyone is actually relaxed, at least in my time, none of the WOs
pulled rank. Anyway, they had more money than us NSF troops, so we don’t drink and mess with them too
much. Less interaction… less problem!
