Soldiers in Chiang Rai Told to Keep Uniforms Out of Social Media Pics

CHIANG RAI — An army unit in Northern Thailand recently announced a policy its commander hopes will protect the military’s politically neutral image: no uniforms in online profile pictures.

Photos of the order, issued by Chiang Rai’s provincial recruiting office, went viral Tuesday and ignited fears among other military units it signified a new universal policy. The colonel responsible for the new regulation on Tuesday dismissed those fears.

“I was the person who issued the order,” Third Army’s Col. Sompong Unjai told Khaosod in an interview. “It’s an internal issue. This is not a policy of the Royal Thai Army.”

According to photos of the order, soldiers under Sompong’s commander cannot wear their uniforms in profile pictures on platforms such as Line and Facebook.

They are also barred from posing in uniform for photos with politicians.

Sompong said the policy was meant to discourage military personnel from associating themselves with political factions in the run-up to the election slated for February.

“It would look like we’re not neutral,” the colonel said. “Other people may use it to attack the military. Some former military officers are running in the election. If uniformed soldiers are seen with them, it might look like the military is siding with them.”

Despite authoritative language in the order, Sompong said it was just a guideline. “It’s not mandatory. Anyone who doesn’t follow it won’t be punished,” he said.

The move came days after Pheu Thai Party members complained that soldiers were seen assisting candidates from a pro-junta party traveling in the northeast. The military denied the allegations.

After Sompong’s order went viral, messages spread via the Line chat application that the army is banning all soldiers from showing their uniforms on social media. One popular Instagram account that regularly posts photos of handsome soldiers and cadets says it would delete the pictures in response.

But army spokeswoman Sirichan Ngathong called it a misunderstanding. The force has no plan to institute such a ban, she said.

“Even my profile pictures show me in uniform right now,” Col. Sirichan said.

Missing Daddy

For the first few years, my dad was in and out of my life. The day after I was born, he received a notice from the draft board that he had been reclassified from 4A to 1A. He had already served three years in the Army during the 30s.

After eight months the lottery draw of the draft board caught up with him in July of 1943. He was off to Fort Leavenworth for his physical on July 13 with thirteen…

“2016 BTS LIVE Official goods for the official ARMY 3기 only! #화양연화onstageEpilogue ||©tto”

“ ３期のブースは改善されてて人数増えてたから楽々。 裏にあるＱＲコードを読み取ったら動画が見れた。 “

“ ライブお楽しみにー！的なやつね。 “

I think i found where http://613px.tumblr.com/post/144724382625/bts came from. Doing endless research on the internet I have come to conclusion that at the Epilogue concert 3rd ARMY’s received official special goods and this picture has a QR code on the back and the video that is on the QR code is where 613px made their gifs.

This other person confirmed my thoughts.

3rd ARMY ZIP Shooting

I know a lot of people are going to hate me, probably even say something inappropriate, I know the rules. I know it is restricted. I am not a member either since I was too late when I started joining the fandom (Mid March) But I’m going to ask anyway.

Does anyone have the tumblr link to the photos? Can you send it to me through DM? I have Hoseok, Yoongi, Taehyung, and Jungkook already. I want to get Jin, Namjoon, and Jimin too, but I cannot find it anywhere, and HONESTLY? This is my last resort.

It’s all over Instagram, but most of them are cut and not of HD quality so y’know...

I need to say that I DO NOT INTEND TO USE IT FOR ANY OTHER PURPOSE EXCEPT FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY. Rest assured that I only download it for personal collection only and do not have any intention to re-distribute.

Thank you.
