The protesters objected to the show's content...Guess these "so-called" protestors have never heard of "combat art", it has long been a proud tradition of the United States military. SGT Fay is a Marine combat artist not just some yahoo with a pencil or brush as some of these artist wannabes appear to be.

Kerr Eby
and Edward Ardizzone are two other favorites of mine.
