to the wife of another soldier who out ranks him, are there ramifications for that? This is in the army and the rank difference is E6 to O1.
Update:This is how the conversation went:
I said, "He's in the field. This is is wife, may I take a message?"
He said, "And YOU have his phone?"
I replied, "He left it here."
He replied, "Oh I forgot you're the bi*** in control."

Generally speaking the wives do not get the same respect as the husbands...but nobody should be disrespected.
If the soldier was deliberately and intentionally disrespectful to you, then you as a civilian can report him through the proper channels.
I am curious that an E6 would just be disrespectful like that...most of the time NCO's know better (at least they should).
Was this an argument where there was he said she said? Maybe not much will happen.
If he was being disrespectful to you in the line of duty. For instance he worked somewhere, where you needed a service and he became rude about it, then that is something different. Report it through his chain of command.
Most likely and E6 won't get in a lot more trouble than a written counseling or verbal reprimand. It could potentially get him an article 15, but unless he just cussed you out or something I doubt that will happen.
I don't know enough to really say what will happen. There are two sides to the story and they will listen to his side...but sometimes even a NCO will mess up.
Note: after reading your details, I think the most that will happen is a verbal counseling. Come on, do you really want to ruin a soldiers career over something like that? What do you want to happen to him? He should be counseled...but let your husband deal with it. He will know more about the soldier and the unit, and he will be better to decide what should happen.
Can you prove it happened?
Why was the E6 looking for the O1?
Did the O1 screw something up?
Did the O1 think it was a good idea to not have his phone as a back up means of communication when all other officers and NCOs had theirs?
Do you have a habit of not letting the O1 go out and play?
How is it going to make this cherry O1 look when he has to try to come down on a seasoned E6 because his wife got her feelings hurt?
Being rude isn't okay but there are enough variables here in play that you better just let this go or talk to your husband about it before throwing a fit and embarrassing him and you (esp if he was wrong for not having his phone or he screwed something up and the E6 was trying to help him).
Whether a soldier or a civilian, no man should ever show disrespect to any woman.
Sounds like he has issues to sort out with your husband.
If he rings back then take the opportunity to tell him to gayfully skip back to where he came from.
Edit: Definite NO to getting your husband to do anything about this. Leave it be and if he rings again then YOU handle him by the advice I gave earlier. Otherwise it can turn a little incident into a huge problem. Caring for your husband also means looking out for him regarding this a..hole.
Remember if he rings back - you get him girl!!!
Good luck.
I just got disrespected from a e-5 soldier on facebook she told me to Go ahead..you ve make me go mad
I don t know you are such a heartbreaker
And let me tell you this...If you ever leave James and break his heart,,,,you will never see a man who s ever gonna love you..you will sick and die on that f**king wheelchair and to go to hell I need to know who do I report this to when they are deployed and now I m being blamed for something I didn t do liana lamphier I m a former soldier myself
A simple *** chewing is as much as you can expect to get out of this. The LT will end up talking with the SSG and say "Hey don't do that again", the SSG will say "Okay no problem" but think "Kiss my *** you cherry *** LT".
You might as well drop it unless you want to be known as the drama queen of the unit FRG, if you are in FRG that is.
I am confused about what your husband's rank has to do with anything! It is not your rank! No, you should not be disrespected but that has nothing to do with rank! If I asked my husband to reprimand one of his soldiers for disrespecting me he would laugh at me if my reason was that he outranked the other soldier.
There are so many officer's wives who give the rest of us a bad name, please don't be one of them!
Yea I have seen Officers wives that can be....B$%#@, like a wife at the gate wanted me to salute her...but usually if I if you talk to your husband he will counsel the E-6 to be more respectful when calling your house next time.
Knowing me I would have called the Sarge right back and told him to go **** himself!!!!
You don't rate your husband's rank... He earned it- not you. Get over yourself. We all have to encounter assholes everyday. It's a part of life.
If he was disrespectful to you, then deal with that. But his rank or your husband's rank has nothing to do with the equation. Nothing.
There is no rank structure for spouses. Officers' wives often choose not to associate themselves with enlisted men's wives, but it out of a false sense of propriety. Nobody is impressed with you because your hubby's an officer.
If a Soldier is disrespectful to any civilian there can be ramifications
I personally would confront the person out side of work or in work and beat his a** he wont get kicked out
