He said he never ever experience such nasty looks from the other customers as he did that day. Now he wants OUT. I think his squad has already been briefed about this. Wearing the uniform in the United States today is not good. Pretty soon, our troops will be changing into civies before they leave work. This is getting REAL bad!

I know this is happening because I've had expieriences with jerks who don't like the military, but
I'll proudly wear my uniform anywhere I want. If someone wants to start a fight with me because of it, I'll give as good as I get. I've been in one fight because I was wearing a pro-military jacket. And I still wear that jacket when the weather calls for it. The feason being is I don't give a f**k what others think, I'm proud to be an American Soldier and I'll wear the uniform proudly anywhere I go.
The people who wear the uniform need to show these A$$HOLES! that we are not afraid of them. We shouldn't let the anti-war/military crowd get to the point when soldiers are afraid to wear the uniform in public.

Man, in the Navy we are actively discouraged from wearing our uniforms in public.

Well, it is going to get interesting. They sure aren't through with us YET. I think this is just the beginning, armyboy...............

Nothing about America is the same anymore, and the times....they are a changing.

And the anti-gun activists wants us to do away with our guns??!!!!!! Makes me think they are on THEIR side! heh!

We already have a big cell in Lewiston, Maine. The then Senator Baldacci (now Governor of Maine) worked with Rep. Tom Allen to bring them in here.

Thanks for serving. I am determined that my generation will not let this crap happen again like it did in Viet Nam.
