Which shows us how little you know about the Military.

The ability to act Independently, to think on your own and to improvise are the very cornerstones of the selection and training process of Army special Forces. The instructors actually laugh at you during selection if you have too much military bearing and do things like square your coners. Green Berets pride themselves on having unconventional appearances. Most of the time my son doesn't wear a conventional uniform. Green Berets relie on self discipline. There's very little in the way of external discipline imposed upon them.

It's the few obnoxious jerk offs like you that need to have the hammer brought down on them. And your kind are only found in the conventional Army. You wouldn't last three days in Special Forces selection before you washed out. And that's counting the first two that are mostly in-processing.
