Go back to the interviews of the IVAW "founders" and they were all Veterans For Peace members and VVAW wannabes who dreamed of being like Jane Fonda's Traitor Boy, John Kerry.
You are correct that they strive for that "VVAW look".
Even at a "memorial" on Veteran's Day in Philly on Independence Day, these shitbirds couldn't be bothered to wear the uniform respectfully for the fallen.
I cannot help but wonder how many of them honestly EVER wore the Uniform (as a real service member). The blantant disrespect for those still serving tells me that they either never were really in the service, or that when they were, they were wash-outs or nearly so. But whatever the circumstances - NONE of them deserve to wear the uniform again - in any respect. They are demonstrating treason.
