At the risk of sounding like an idiot, is this a big deal?
I saluted during the flag raising at my sister in law’s roller derby match.
It surprised a bunch of folks to see a big gorilla in a black watch kilt saluting and many came and asked why i did it.
When I told them of the new rules a bunch of the vets in the crowd said they wished they had known.
So stand tall and proud.
The cake eaters are the ones that should be ashamed for not serving!
OOOORAH!
Semper Fi
I make it a point to wear a cover to events where the National Anthem will be played and I proudly salute The Colors.
I also make sure I’ve got a hankie handy because our flag and anthem always manage to well up tears in this old Navy Vet.

Right on thanks for passing this on.
Go Navy :-)
