Members shall not engage in a romantic relationship with anyone at a unit with less than how many members?

• A. 50
• B. 60
• C. 75
• D. 100

Answer: (B)

Focus on why relationships in a unit can disrupt command and morale when the group is small. When a unit has fewer members, a romantic relationship between members can more easily affect leadership decisions, supervision, and the perception of fairness. The policy uses a minimum unit size threshold to determine when such relationships must be avoided within the unit. Below that size, the risk to command climate and professional conduct is high enough that relationships are prohibited; above that size, relationships are allowed under standard professional conduct. The correct threshold is the mid-range option because it aligns with that balance between risk in small teams and practicality in larger ones. The other numbers would imply thresholds that are too small or too large for this rule to serve its purpose.
