This thread starts with a simple observation of an error and rapidly escalates into a tempest in a thimble.
Just another link in a long chain, in my view anyway.

As DCP is fond of saying, “it’s a cumulative case.”
I suppose a bit of a rut is there directing traffic.

Who hasn’t driven a man around to cheat on his wife, after all? Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.

My father wouldn’t be caught dead doing such a thing. But then no one has painted his portrait.
Let's not forget that this was the military during wartime. It wasn't a question of Peterson Senior being "caught dead" doing anything; the man quite literally didn't have a choice.

Oh I’m sure he had a choice. I’m sure there were consequences that would follow.

I remember singing a song about this in Mormon church.

Par for the course. What happens when there's nothing else to talk about. You've got to make it up as you go. ;)

I think my memory is correct in recalling that DCP is a convert so his father would not have been subject to this hyper moralistic demand. Even considering the Mormon penchant for select moments of moral strictness it would likely be agreed that a person is not required to make a big show every time a superior officer does not follow your standards.

Notes like perhaps stolen valor or Paul Dunn stories strike me as gratuitous speculation. Your speculation about missing promotion because of aiding immoral behavior is more interesting, details of army regulation beyond my knowledge would be involved. If regulation indicate the Sergeant was breaking regulation it is interesting to wonder if that was ever negatively reported.
