Veterans can salute during the Pledge of Allegiance too
I got to salute Ronald Reagan, my commander-in-chief, in the Capital rotundra in 2004. Others seemed to follow.
Stirring the pot.
“she as an Active Duty AIRMAN ... What say you?”
I say that I’m gobsmacked that in this woke country a member of the U.S. military was even allowed to be in the contest, much less win Miss America
I salute her.
Not guilty.
I don’t really understand why they changed the customs and courtesies to people in civilian clothes to begin with. If you’re in civilian clothes and you were a soldier or a sailor or an airman you place your hand over your heart. If you’re holding a hat you remove your hat and still place your hand over your heart not the freaking hat. I guess people couldn’t get it so they changed it. Now we get to all salute! I’m still placing my hand over my heart because that’s what my daddy did, that is what my granddaddy’s did that’s what all my uncles did and they were all war heroes as far as I was concerned. Believe in the warfighter/civilian concept. It’s honorable. Do you want to prove that you were in the military and now you’re a civilian show them your freaking veterans card.
This is why I HATE the LEFT, all Karens. They never complain about their side. There complaints are only to tear down one side, almost expects a Karen to post “those shoes” comment……
As a veteran of the American Armed Forces, I have the right to salute the flag, uncovered, anytime I choose.
Good on her. I had the strangest desire to salute a b-1 bomber one time, lol. Turns out it was getting ready to make it’s final flight to the Air Force Museum.
I bet the libs will try to strip her title over this.
Entirely appropriate.
