I truly dislike that people have made this about veterans. It’s about the United States of America and ALL it stood for and given it’s citizens.

Millions have died at home while building this great country. Millions have sacrificed to build it to the greatest country in the history of the world. Limiting the talk to veterans means the sentiment doesn’t reach those people’s families and heritage

I am glad I saw your post before replying.

I totally agree with you. This is about the flag of the United States of America, not a military flag. This flag is about EVERY citizen past and present. It is our flag and everybody needs to be proud of that fact.

I was in the military for 20 years and fought the Cold War and it was for OUR flag and Country. The military does not lay claim to it. It is the inheritance of all citizens of the United States.

I note an NFL commercial about a player paying homage to servicemen. Nice try NFL, but it’s not about military servicemen. It’s about policemen.
