Use of the interrogative pronouns 'who' (subjective) and 'whom' (objective), depends on the function in the sentence. Examples:
To whom should our solders be reporting on base?
Who should our soldiers be reporting to on base?

Which is correct Bob and Sue whom you met OR who you met?
"Whom" is not the plural form of the interrogative "who" (as a previous answerer stated), it is the objective form. So it does not matter if you're talking about more than one person or only one person. You should use "whom" when it's acting as an object (direct object, indirect object, object of a preposition), and "who" when it's acting as the subject of a sentence. There's much debate over whether "who" or "whom" should be used as predicate nominative, though traditionally, you would use "who" (this is similar to the debate of whether we should say "It is I" or "It is me", "It is I" is traditionally correct, but more current English speakers say "It is me"). In the example of the independent clause "whom you met", "you" is the subject, "met" is the predicate, and "whom" is the direct object. "Whom" is correct, not "who".

What is the difference between traditional grammar and functional grammar?
Traditional grammar is correct "textbook" grammar. Functional grammar is colloquial grammar, grammar that people use in regular conversation. For instance, people tend to say "Who are you going with?" even though that is incorrect and the correct form would be "With whom are you going?" (prepositions should always precede their objects, and "who" should be in the objective case "whom").
