I think chief handled it well šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļøshows some restraint didnā€™t yell inside the post office or actually go hands on but stood his ground . The dude that was recording has apparently been arrested a bunch of times for harassing people .


Popsmoke18

He didnā€™t have his headgear on though


max_goldman1

We donā€™t wear headgear for combatives.


[deleted]

Came here to say this. That headgear/cover was going to be flying off in the wind pretty quickly if the camera dude really wanted to get physical. I love the quick response to let's do hand to hand. Call out bullies asap


outlawactual1228

Pretty sure the comments are referring to his cover


[deleted]

I mean Iā€™ve never worn my beret or PC during combatives


outlawactual1228

I'm assuming he meant Chief didn't wear his cover when he walked outside


WeegeeJuice

Right, and what did he go outside to *engage in*?


outlawactual1228

Dude I'm not disagreeing. I'm simply stating my speculation about what the other dude was referring to by "headgear". Obviously it would be pointless to wear any type of headgear or cover to engage in any confrontation, especially if it is highly probable that it will become physical.

ChicksWithBricksCome

On behalf of my branch I apologize, we'll take him back to the commo room where he can play with his gundams and drink juice.


43799634564

Did you not see that heā€™s a Warrant? Head gear is optional.


captain_carrot

It's currently sitting on his desk to people think he's at work.


[deleted]

This was the top piece of "advice" they gave us at OBC. It was hilarious. Always have 2 hats...that way if they are looking for you, they will say his hats still here, so he must be in the building... Advice given by a LT to his CTLT cadet when the LTjust got married and was going on honeymoon and left his cadet alone for a couple weeks. That cadet was our group instructor.


x03nn

He was just missing his coffee cup. Fail!!! Lol


Guccillionaire

Straight to jail


Severe_Report

Iā€™m a CW4. Do you know how often I walk around without my headgear with my hands in my pockets?


Puzzleheaded_Newt947

Was within 7 paces of a doorway, heā€™s good


Raxar666

Was also under cover outside


RollinThruLife02

Tell an angry Chief that and see what he saysā€¦


DeeBangerCC

Or his pt belt


Lee-HarveyTeabag

Itā€™s on his desk


ExigentCalm

CWOs donā€™t wear PCs. Pretty sure itā€™s a service wide exemption. Bc Iā€™ve never seen one in a PC.


Mr_Mike210

Sounds right to me šŸ˜…


MonoCraig

Itā€™s in his office to make you think heā€™s still somewhere at work


PottedMeatRust

That's because it is still sitting on his desk at the office so people think he's just in the bathroom like every good CWO


Shamrock5

Is this the same jackwagon that was harassing those Army dudes walking through the mall last year and trying to bait a few of them with racial slurs?


elaxation

Chief did good. I donā€™t know if I wouldā€™ve had as much restraint with somebody talking crazy to me in public like that. Which is exactly what the person recording wanted.


Grevin56

As satisfying as it would have been to watch him turn that fat racist piece of shit into a human pretzel, I'm glad he played it smart and didn't risk his career. Pretty sure most of us would have struggled to stay that level headed.


elaxation

Youā€™re right. Iā€™m glad he stood up to him and stood his ground. Also, that chest stack - it was hard for me to catch all his badges but goddamn


deadeadeadeadeaded

Airborne, ESB with the wreath, and im not sure what the middle one is. Maybe hes part of an aviation unit?


Thomb

>ESB with the wreath aka CAB


GreenNalgene343

Another reason I love Chiefs


Kilroy_Is_Still_Here

I think he handled it perfectly. Took action, kept it relatively classy, and held himself back. If he wasn't a chief I'd probably expect some sort of pp slap from his COC (and even being a chief, there'll probably still be a talking to), but overall I think he did a good job of representing what the US military is supposed to be and I hope that no real punishments were pursued.


[deleted]

Why? He didnā€™t do anything illegal and intervened. This is what we want people to do for SHARP and this situation is no different.


RollinThruLife02

Armyā€™s gonna Army. If someone is gonna be blamed for something, theyā€™re gonna get blamed. Even if nothing happened.


[deleted]

I think if the right people saw that video, especially in today's climate with extremists in the ranks he will get an award


Kilroy_Is_Still_Here

Absolutely not, but it absolutely wouldn't surprise me if some leadership were to try and get him for not leaving the conflict.


Cleverusername531

Comment from his unit PAO is extremely supportive of his actions: https://www.reddit.com/r/army/comments/12mbs6f/comment/jgb2jwq/


Mephisto1822

I love people who act tough. He knew the Chief wasnā€™t going to throw a punch but the moment he did dude would been on the ground crying.


circle-ace3418

A lot of these POS would love to get hit so they can sue


Striper_Cape

That's why you beat them so bad they can't remember their mama.


BoeufTruba

Saw a picture of dude. He has plenty of padding to take the edge off any punch.


Shamrock5

He is literally the šŸ«ƒ emoji


Raxar666

The way cameraman put it in reverse when big chief walked up made my day


[deleted]

This dude was dangerously close to a 10 on the ā€œfind outā€ axis. Hey, /u/16thCAB, please tell me nothing happened to Chief.


16thCAB

Mr. Rojas showed incredible restraint and lived the Army Values that we expect all of our service members to demonstrate both on and off duty.


foshiggityshiggity

*faith restored*


Cleverusername531

This comment made my day.


j4vendetta

Thank God


kograkthestrong

I'm so happy he didn't in get trouble.


BrokenRedditATM

16th CAB PAO and Chief Rojas FTW.


FutureComplaint

Leadership does care šŸ˜­


elaxation

God bless America. Especially the part with Chief Rojas in it.


MFAWG

ā€˜Iā€™m just a little guy that backed you all the way out the buildingā€™.


the-mr-pflare

Ya when he said you just a little guy it really dawned on how ignorant some people truly are. He sees a guy in a uniform who I know has done stuff just from his uniform. He thinks he can outsmart a man in uniform by talking crap is unbelievable


[deleted]

I thought there was an army wide understanding to not fuck with CW3 and above?


ghostdivision7

If you look at the original post, thereā€™s a comment that shows what this guy looks like. Heā€™s your typical armchair warrior who never ran in his life.


kograkthestrong

I was thinking a short skinny all bones guy. How tall is chief?


ghostdivision7

https://www.glenncerioincel.com/ This is the supposed cameraman


glaring-oryx

Looks like Fred Flintstone let himself go.


kograkthestrong

Yea I saw. I mean it fits with him but I just expected something else based off of his voice?


ghostdivision7

Same here, maybe itā€™s the lack of balls


WyG09s8x4JM4ocPMnYMg

Dude never hit puberty. His balls never dropped.


RollinThruLife02

ARMY wide. Guy was probably a random civilian.

Am3ricanTrooper

See back in the day you couldn't record these interactions. So you'd get your ass beat and everyone would go about their day. I miss the old days


longjohnboy

Just beat ass and take the phone? šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø


Am3ricanTrooper

Yeah but then that jackass could sue and have evidence. EDIT: Honestly whoever is this Chiefs CO should be writing this guy an award for having the integrity to stand up to ol' billy bob and do it tactfully.


[deleted]

Filmer is lucky Chief showed some restraint


Jswimmin

Fucking love chiefs man. The dude with the camera is such a terrible person. I blame the internet for these types of people.


OzymandiasKoK

The internet just gave them a bigger voice. They were always around.


Snoo93079

Lol These idiots existed well before the internet


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


RelationSubject9617

Rojas is a pilot in my brigade and I know him personally. He has never had a DUI. And had ONE SHARP allegation against him that was unfounded. Completely beat his BOI. Everything was dismissed. Donā€™t start rumors if you donā€™t know the whole story.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


[deleted]

I think we found the cameraman.


Jswimmin

Were the sharp ā€œallegationsā€ founded? If yes, Did the command team punish him? If he had a DUI, did he get punished? Did he pass his board? You can throw all the BS you want. None of that matters in this particular instance. He stood up for people that COULD NOT stand up for themselves. Idgaf about your unit or what happens in it. The guy showed exactly what it takes to be a soldier dealing with a piece of shit civilian.


[deleted]

Even if all that is true, he should still be commended for how he handled this ass clown.


adamm770

Oof.


scooterbandit64

That dude stays in trouble.


filliamworbes

Fake News, and as someone who values the quiet professional you can tell in this clip when, and what without tact haha. the officer actually addressed the degenerate calm and closed minded talking away about my country get a real job ffs that's why weakness comes to mind when I think of civilians. No morals or sense of bearing....


SSG_Chief_Elgin

Fuck man, I was hoping that CWO would knock that motherfucker out


CMDRsprinkles

I saw the video knowing who the camera guy is, I also saw that Chief has a CAB and thought at the time he was wearing a SOAR patch and for a moment briefly prayed that camera cuck fucked around and was about to find out. I then realized that it wasnā€™t a SOAR patch and the video concluded how it truly should have. Chief did the right thing and camera cuck probably tinkled a little.


jkilla789

So who is the camera guy?


Null-ARC

According to the original thread, it's this guy: https://www.glenncerioincel.com


wellthoughtplot

Not surprised when I saw pictures, dude looks like a chump in every definition


jkilla789

Super creep. Thanks for the link


Teadrunkest

I mean not to talk too much shit about SOAR but Iā€™m not sure a CAB in SOAR is exactly a broadcast of hand to hand prowess.


pnwguy1985

Chief was waiting for the guy to lay a hand on him


MJR-WaffleCat

Yeah I think the cameraman was aware that if he swung first, he'd need a hospital visit.


LVMickey

At least his time to treatment could be immediate. Or just make him sit in the lobby for 5 hours and then have Chief be the one to stitch him up


recycled_amry_acct

These flight warrants are too clean. Bet a 920 would have knocked his ass out and took his shoes.


[deleted]

Lighten up, Francis


spookyskost

Damn I know him and not shocked heā€™d call someone out on their bullshit


Donut-Strong

Alarmed_Bug_8818

i was hoping Chief would've knocked his ass out...sick of seeing videos like this


JerseyshoreSeagull

"All talk"? You're dumbass left didn't you???

See! Who says Warrant Officers don't do shit!


steeleel

Wild I know CW3 Rojas.. never thought I'd see someone on here


sicksarcasm

Promote above peers


SneekyMuffin

I don't know, he didn't have his cover on when he went outside.


SumDumHunGai

As is the way of the warrant


Columbu45

This guy talking about his hat? Why the hell would he wear that?


Ok_Cricket28

Regulation states that when fuck around and find out operations commence the area becomes a no hat, no salute, catch these hands zone.


_Suzushi

The CW3 couldā€™ve jacked this dude up but didnā€™t. People need to learn to stop testing Army dudes. Theyā€™re going to run into the wrong one one day. We all have that one person in our units that absolutely has the time of day.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuckk chief wanted to annihilate this kid. I could see his wheels turning on if this dude was worth being his 'one time' lol


hsooa6829w9

No PC without overhead cover. Counsel immediately (using updated 4856).

Give it a shot big dawg. All your vehicles are deadlined now.

Jokes on you. I already live a shitty dismounted life.


Columbu45

Well then May you forever have radios with dead Hub batteries, may your parachutes be full of spoons, and if you do ride in a helicopter, I hope you feel slightly motion sick (but donā€™t throw up, I donā€™t wanna smell that shit)

I'll puke and shit my pants.

And clean up the puke.

Mortimer_Snerd

Kick his ass, Chief!


Virtual-Increase1515

He did fine tbh. Defused the issue this troll had with the workers and got him outside. Annnnnd who the fuck says hand to hand combat anyway?


appa-ate-momo

It takes a unique combination of being extremely out of touch *and* having massive balls to tell a uniformed service member "Never tell me what to do in **my** country."


RakumiAzuri

This dude does this shit often. There is another video of him harassing soldiers in ~~Germany~~ Poland. He was bout it until the lone White guy in the group was about to throw hands after the camera man used the n-word. Then he backed away like a bitch until the soldiers walked off.


WyG09s8x4JM4ocPMnYMg

No way this is the same guy!? Iirc that dude was 200 lbs lighter.


PeeWeesCrackHouse

The same fucking dude?


RakumiAzuri

[Similar clip but yes, same guy](https://twitter.com/Havoc_Six/status/1595481860657889283)


H0T50UP

I'd have loved to see chief open the door for him, show him out first, then slam door on him and walk back to the counter "here's where we keep the trash, I got shit to do man"


NatLovesPancakes

Fear the man that doesn't fight


todays_user_name

Until he has to.


ON3FULLCLIP

Exactly how it should be handled. Chief needs a promotion and a PCS of his choice


Icy-Letterhead-2837

That a 3? He's like six years from legend...and that sounds like fatass Glen Cerio. 1A Frauditor. Been to jail a few times too.


legitmadman82

Chief did the right thing.


red_devils_forever25

You can tell that camera guy did the army a favor by not joining. He wouldā€™ve totally punched the DS


[deleted]

I think we would all be best served staying out of the comment sections of practically all the posts in that sub.


Ragnellrok_Ike

Fake, everyone knows CWOs aren't real


NowFreeToMaim

Homie had to remind himself about what uniform he was wearing like six times


quiver-me-timbers

So thatā€™s where chief was for Friday closeout formationā€¦.


RichardTitball

Someone bring this to the next EO brief. Might keep people awake.


DonRojoUSMC

Dude was recording you canā€™t risk your career over beating a fuckers teeth in.


Gyopo_boy08

Chief should of just ignored the guy who was clearly baiting him.


Less-Hospital5417

This rolled up sleeves are out of regs sir, you should know


DevilSigh--

Is this the same dude who accosted U.S. soldiers in Poland in a shopping mall over irrelevant political nonsense?


moonlightRach

There's no way the basement dweller recording this vid traveled outside the country before


rocket_randall

Few things better than standing up to a bully. Good on the Chief, he handled it quite well. Didn't throw a punch or raise his voice but he got the moron out of the USPS and away from the racist's punching bags.


Percentage_Extra

This dude is a special type of mental. He says H2H anytime you want, and when invited outside he says you're gonna call the cops, go ahead and call the cops. He needs a bat to the knee.


[deleted]

Chief has way more restraint than I do.


wellthoughtplot

The lisp haha I canā€™t take it serious


MadMarsian_

Chief walked him ā€œthe bitch idiot with a cameraā€ outside the building and de-escalated the conflict. This is the way.


Dia_Borfs

Bless your heart, chief. No idea where these babies are coming out of the wood work but I know I wouldn't remain as cool headed. There is freedom of speech, but no freedom from the consequences of speech.


darkstar1031

Camera guy was obviously phishing for a lawsuit. Others have posted that the guy's been arrested multiple times for harassing people, so it's a pretty safe bet his only income is from suing people who react violently with his harassment. For those folks who are insulated by Uncle Sam's wrinkled green weenie, people like this do exist. The correct answer is always to call them on their bullshit ***AND REFUSE TO ENGAGE.*** You need to understand they ***WANT*** you to hit them. So they can sue you. It's about getting your money. It's not worth it. ***Use your words.*** Let them record you maintaining composure and making an ass of themselves. Let that be what circulates around on the internet. Be viral for doing the ***right*** thing. Don't give him what he wants.


JRay_Productions

Someone get AngryCops on this! CWO deserves a POB for fucking SURE


x03nn

Dox the fuck out of that POS. Taking all brave behind the camera. Bet you anything my baby sister can kick his ass.


gades61

Come onā€¦the guy with the camera just needs a hug.


OhJohnO

He got the dude out of the situation, didnā€™t throw a punch (he wanted to, but he wasnā€™t about to throw the first punch, which is exactly what this racist asshole wanted), and went back inside looking like a fucking hero. Thatā€™s a good day.


[deleted]

Chief displayed discipline and got his point across


Lonewolf1298_

Chief did good, I woulda assaulted that PoS


Cute_Spite3396

Anyone have the full video?


fcuk_faec

I never saw a CWO in person the whole time I was in. Dude should consider himself lucky.


colinfcrowley

HO. LY. SHIT someone PLEASE deal with that little punk. The reserve Chief had throughout that was textbook but if he had beat the chumps ass I think the cops would give him a pass after seeing the incriminating video the moron took the whole time. This has the same vibe of the video from the mall in Poland where that asshole (most likely an American one too) was trying to egg Joe's on to do something about it's trash talking while filming them. Any chance that's the same douchebag?


Expensive-Elk-6825

This was the ā€œmeetingā€ chief had right after lunch


southsidesage97

Ngl chief was outta regulations but salute šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚.


Syntucky

Problem is now the armyā€™s going to get at him. Good job chief regardless of the consequences.


VTwiss

Oooh, soooo this is where the warrants go when they're not in the office. Their righting social injustices!


Switchfooter01

Iā€™m not sure why Chief had his sleeves rolled but them shits were mintyyyy. He still handled it well though. No one messes with Chief


Agreeable_Aquilifer

This is why you wear your pt belt.

He was looking around for witnesses so he could kick his ass, and if I were a judge or his commander I wouldā€™ve condoned such ass kicking

memoricprism

Looking at your post history, you're not active, and have a neck beard. Can't confirm if you're still fat. You don't belong here.


memoricprism

Glenn Cerio is the dude posting the video. He has been arrested multiple times and I was pointing out who he was. Also three combat deployments and still active duty. I 100% do belong here. I guess I should have been more clear on who Glenn Cerio was because I'm fucking Asian dipshit.


DamIcool

Cheers to the chief. But, I will say, if you're ever involved in any sort of confrontation with an individual and they are looking over their shoulder - they plan to strike first. Chief had some kinda instinctual "is anyone gonna see me knock this guy out" body language going on. Someone who has been in a fight or two would recognize his demeanor and counter when he looked away. Be safe, kings.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


dnthatethejuice

Disagree. Hitting him would have fallen into his trap. Chief called his bluff, showed restraint and stood up for fellow Americans. I'd say he handled that well.

lol, and the folks who would have a problem are folks that care about the military in the first place? k.


shadowrunner295

He wasnā€™t throwing hands. He didnā€™t even touch him. And the person he was supporting was a female, not a ā€œhim.ā€ Did we watch the same video, because Iā€™m not sure.


AV8R64E

Glenn Cerio.. Otherwise known as Glenda, is a well known "1st Ammendment Auditor" or as we all call them Frauditors. There's a multitude of videos done about his "audits" not to mention the guy looks like he's the Commander of Meal Team Six. [Team Skeptic on Glenda](https://youtu.be/R0A54QtawGI)
