just curious for the ex/current military people, what if she had done the pledge correctly then asked for this one for fun? still as bad, worse, better?
Tough one to answer; for many of us it is an event not to be taken lightly. For example, when my wife was first sworn into the Navy as a new LTJG, she asked that my dad (ret AF officer) be the one administering the oath. Years later when she was selected for Capt; he made sure he was the one who gave her the first set of eagles, but he was gone before the promotion was effective. When you remember things like that, it's hard to say it's just a bit of fun and games.
