Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!
Not the military!
Well, not most of us, anyway...
I could tell you about the Airman (female) who wore Obie earrings (which she fashioned out of 2 campaign buttons). That broke regs 2 ways: earrings worn on duty must be simple post (ball or tiny stone) type and politic-ing in uniform -- let alone on duty is forbidden.
When I tracked down her CO, he told me that when he had mentioned it to her, doing so in a kindly fashion, (I know the guy - and if he says "kindly" you can believe it...) he got a "call" and an LOR: she accused him of racism! Oh, did I mention she's black?
I experienced 1st hand another incident... but I don't want to go into that incident, or the 6 others I got 2nd hand -- directly from the people who'd experienced them -- its simply too demoralizing to remind one's self that the rot has started even here. Every Serviceman should know better...
The thing to remember, though, is this: As a rule there are really only 2 groups of personnel where Liberals concentrate: the Medical Corps, and anything PR. When you pickup a copy of Army Times, and they glow about the Obamanation of Desolation, remember that they're run by Libs, and any polls, interviews, or non-straight-fact info (like the Base Pay, BHA, etc tables) has been massaged to propagandize and to convert the "greenies" to Liberalism.
But, please don't lump the bulk of us together w/the Libs! It hurts!
I guess what I really meant is that they “own” - as in control - everything now. No offense intended! Having grown up an AF brat, I know you’re right.
