In the U.S., people not in the Army are not soldiers, especially so for Marines â who will strongly protest being painted with that brush. âTroopsâ or âservice membersâ are the umbrella terms that refer to all the members of the military.
As a general rule for all tie knots, the widest part of your tie should hang roughly at the same height as the upper edge of your leather belt, with the tieâs tip extending slightly below it. The tip of the narrow end would then hang wherever it may.
A facial laceration (staples should not be used here) repaired with sutures should be removed in about five days, but if they are in a place of tension, it may be longer. A scalp laceration with staples can will be 7-10 days, again depending on the size/depth of the wound. Feet or abdominal lacerations may require sutures to remain in place of ten days. So....call the ER for patient-specific instructions.
