Creative punishment

The other day I decided to wear my summer boots, despite it being against policy here. I made a judgment call - it was above freezing for the first time, plus I was going to be working mostly indoors that day anyway.

My platoon sergeant noticed, and now I have to carry all 4 of my issued boots everywhere I go. Fun.

Wow, I have never heard of a policy like that before. I never wear my summer boots, regardless of the weather, because they are absolutely uncomfortable. The winter boots aren't much better though. I always just go off post and find a nice, comfortable pair, and wear them year 'round. I'm sure the ones I wear might be against someone's regs, but I'm in a support unit and no one here cares about stuff like that.
