That is probably because people of different ranks tend to have different responsibilities.
An infantry platoon leader (2LT/1LT) has drastically different duties than an infantry team leader (SGT/SSG). And these are different from that of team members (PVT - SPC). When you get into general grade, now you're talking about commanding large elements, which involves a vastly different set of skills than leading a few dozen people.
Actually, I know of a few medics that keep tampons on hand for plugging bullet wounds.
Works pretty well, but a problem that comes up as much as others.
I worked for a company that had an off duty conduct policy. It was intended, I think, for people who get arrested or convicted for things that happen while they are not at work, eg drunk driving. However (comma pause for effect) it was generally used against people who complained about their boss or work on their own time. Kind of like this.
That company is IPC International Corporation. It's a contract security firm, so I doubt many people here would work for them, but throwing it out there just in case. It wasn't the way I would have liked to leave, but I thank G-d every day that I never have to deal with them again. It may seem like I have a lot of resentment toward them. Maybe I do... hindsight being 20/20 I should have taken unemployment and finished my degree. (which I am doing now.)
Also that policy applied to the guards, maybe not management. Or it may be even more restrictive for management.

One day while home from work, I heard a knock at the door, a muffled "maintenance" and someone start to key their way in.
Someone trying to enter my domicile without my permission would make me a bit edgy too.
