Navy SEALs ordered to remove ‘don’t tread on me’ Navy Jack from uniforms 10:44 AM 11/01/2013 Carl Higbie Author, 'Battle on the Home Front'
The Navy Jack is the ‘don’t tread on me’ flag, one that has earned a revered place in America’s naval history and a beloved place in sailor’s hearts, through its use for over two centuries. This symbol of America’s naval ferocity has spanned our country’s entire existence, flying from the masts of the Continental Navy during the war of independence, to today’s War on Terror. In fact, an amendment to the Navy code called SECNAV Instruction 10520.6 clearly states that as of 31 May 2002 all ships are to fly the flag throughout the duration of the War on Terror.
So why would ranking SEAL commanders ban the historical symbol? Is the proverbial top bass banning the flag? Is President Obama?
Clearly the administration and sycophant “top brass” officers have degraded America’s military prestige; from hand-tying rules of engagement, to uniform regulations that make our military allegedly more compatible with foreign forces, to the banning of an awe-inspiring flag that traces its roots to the first U.S. Navy. We have a civilian-led military, but why should our ranking commanders be complicit in the administration’s war on it? Why don’t they stand up to Obama and his leftist cronies?

With Obama in the midst of imposing socialist policies, many via executive orders destroying our FREEDOMS, he finds the “Don’t Tread on Me” message to be a bit too rebellious.
THAT is “Why?”!!!
My arrived yesterday...
Mass mutiny. In the words of Nancy Reagan, “Just say NO.”

Please help. Are these all Seals or what?
It’s been banned because it’s too closely associated with the Tea Party. They gonna ban the American flag on uniforms because the Tea Party flies the Stars and Stripes?
Absolute Bovine Excrement.
I am purchasing a Navy Jack for wear on my LE Tactical gear in protest...
and I’m not even a squid.
RLTW.
If a SEAL says “come and take it” one would be wise to reverse the order...

These are the SEALs and other Americans killed when Extortion 17 was shot down in August 2011.
One of them was a FReeper, though I can’t disclose his identity.
If a SEAL says come and take it, I’d go find something safer to do. Like play in traffic on the interstate. Blindfolded.
Well in a way the soviets were responsible for training the people Obama grew up with. In a way they designed him. His presidency has been planned for a long time.
“When a friend of mine asked his leadership the same question, he was told, “The Jack is too closely associated with radical groups.” We must assume that this thought policeman embedded in the SEAL community is speaking of the Tea Party, whose flag (which also dates from the American Revolution) depicts a snake with the same defiant slogan as The Navy Jack.”
We have known for a good while that the Obama Administration has considered Christians, gun owners, libertarians, and lovers of the Constitution to be radicals. That is the reason Homeland Security is stockpiling weapons, ammo and pepper spray - to be prepared in case these “radicals” (called “patriots” in 1776) need to be suppressed.
Of course, this attitude is not confined to the current administration; it is shared by all Liberals and “Progressives.” Remember that Clinton’s Asst Sec’y of the Army Sara Lister referred to the Marines as “extremists” back in 1997.
I believe that it is also the reason that there is an ongoing purge of military officers who refuse to be politically correct sycophants.
The Fundamental Transformation is almost complete.

“We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.” Barack Hussein Obama, 7/2/2008
What could possibly go wrong?
little barry has spoken.
