RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TRAITS AND PRINCIPLES
The leadership traits are demonstrated or projected in the leader’s actions and the
leadership principles provide the guidelines for a successful leader. [lesson=If you don't submit to slavery, refuse to abuse other kids, don't love being tortured, Youre not a leader]
CADET UNIFORMS
The basic uniform for cadets is the BDU.
a. Cadets will not wear any unserviceable uniform items or neglect to wear any of the
above-mentioned items. Instructors will ensure that all cadets present satisfactory
military appearance and bearing.

these kids work form 6 in the morning to 9:00 at night. there is no free-time.
GROOMING STANDARDS
Upon intake into Respect Camp, you will receive an entry-level military precise haircut
children's heads are shaved bald upon intake. Just like prison. Dehumanizing. One of many violations of the body
1) Entering the Mess hall
The instructor will give the order to move your squad into the Mess hall. Upon entering cadets
will remove their covers and move in an orderly fashion to the chow line. When directed to do so, cadets
will select a tray from the stack and side step through the chow line. Trays will be held horizontally at chest
level. Cadets will issue the greeting of the day to all staff.
Cadets will be required to wait until their respective class is present in their assigned chow section
to sit and consume chow. Instructors will issue the command- Ready, SEAT- for cadets to sit in a uniform
manner, Adjust- to adjust seating position in a uniform manner, and EAT- for chow consumption to begin.
Cadets will be allowed to offer grace individually and quietly.
Dining Hall Rules
1. No talking will be allowed. Cadets must request permission to speak by raising hand and waiting to be
called on by an instructor.
2. No food or beverages are to be removed from the dining hall.
3. All cadets will remain seated until their row is called to exit the dining hall.
4. Cadets will not be allowed to swap or give their food to another cadet.
3) Leaving the Mess hall
After cadets have completed their meal, they will move orderly to the scullery and dispose of
utensils and trash. Cadets will assume a file along the bulkhead with cover in their left hand, forearm
parallel to the deck. The platoon will await Instruction from the SI to depart the Chow Hall.
4) Mess Duty (Kitchen Police or KP)
At some point in the program, you may be assigned to Mess Duty. Your mission on mess duty is to
assist the Chow Hall in their duties and to learn as much possible about working on a job "first mention of forced labor, justified as "learning" about menial labor
Follow the below listed norms while on Kitchen Police. [kitchen "police"?]
d. Do not ask for additional food. If a child is hungry why can he not have additional food? Or even ask for it? I enjoy their real life implentation of the Dicken's novel "Oliver"

4. Talk to any person not assigned to Eagle Merit Camp without permission. [I thought this place was called "respect" camp. Why is it called two things at once? Is a 'normal' name given to outsiders and a degrading campe name for the captives? Was Eagle Merit a known WWASP entity and Respect Camp the new title meant to hide association Why can't the kids talk to outsiders without permission? the possibility of leaking information about torture?]

The list below will outline the demeanor/manner by which a cadet will conduct himself .
1 Requesting permission to speak. When a cadet desires to speak to a staff member]Talking
inside the barracks will be kept to a whisper.[/b] A cadet desiring to talk with another cadet not assigned to his
Squad Bay may go to the common area when free time is granted. I don't see any free time in the schedule. It seems the kids are never allowed to talk to eachother
4. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO TALKING ALLOWED IN THE HEAD/SHOWER ROOM.
5. The first cadet to see anyone that is not a cadet, will sound "attention on deck", then all cadets will
come to "attention" until the command "carry on" is given. A staff member or individual entering the dorm

class is being conducted.

calls, Cadets will place all personal items in their proper place, strip down to T-shirts and underwear, and
standby at "attention" for taps procedure.
7. After prayer, all cadets will face their bunks and a instructor will sound "prepare to mount." The cadets
will respond by saying "Sir, prepare to mount, aye aye sir", Then a instructor will sound "mount" at which
time the cadets will mount his rack." Once mounted, the cadets will assume the position of "attention" until
they have been given the command to "adjust" and go to sleep with no talking.
8. Cadets will not call another by any nickname. Only his last name preceded by the "cadet." All

1. All cadets will have a haircut before the end of the day on Tuesday’s. The cadets’ head will be
completely bald.
2. All cadets are required to be shaven before 0600 each day. No facial hair is allowed. So, the kids are awake fairly long before 6:00 every morning. Even if they woke up exactly at 6:00 they'd be sleep deprived because of the amount of exercise they do. Now it's clear they get less than 8:00 hours sleep
3. Fingernails and toenails will be kept clipped and clean at all times.
4. Every cadet will take at least one shower every day. All other personal hygiene, such as teeth, etc., is to

you should immediately bring the matter to the attention of the duty instructor.

supervisor of that detail. No cadet movement takes place while count is in progress.
16. Staff can order any cadet to open his locker for inspection at any time.
17. Personal property is your responsibility. The boot camp will not be responsible for articles lost or
stolen. So are kids supposed to fight it out with other kds or staff who steal their stuff? Or just accept their powerlessness?
19. Cadets’ will shower every day.
20. Cadets’ will have a clean face every day. Are kids forcibly stripped naked and bathed if they refuse to participate in the public bathing set-up? Why are teens further along in program, and staff allowed to "inspect" the bodies of these young adults? Its violating level of force and not in keeping with any camp i've heard of
