I only did one tour in the military, but I did have the opportunity to see a number of reenlistment events over the course of my life.

They were uniformly respectful. There was gravity and tradition associated with them. People were often dressed up for it, and it was a good thing.

This is shameful. It is disrespectful. And it reeks of Leftism, which has to destroy all forms of history and tradition to achieve its goals.

Shameful. This kind of thing depresses me.

I have taken four re-enlistments in my military career, always in the presence of my beloved flag that I might have died for. It is a solemn, serious ceremony, where one pledges their allegiance to the Constitution and to defend the Country to their last full measure. Not a something to take lightly.
