Some things our Military does and has done offends a lot of folks.
So what.
War is war and the politicos with the clean uniforms and shiny boots pretty much make up the reasons our troops are still there.
As for me, once there collective asses were kicked we should have packed up and let them sort out their own crap. They no longer pose a threat to the world. Maybe even have the French come down and kiss their rears, and rebuild the place. I certainly dont like paying taxes to do so.
I hope at least they get to keep the flag. It would look good in the Pilots Lounge .....We know what will happen, the guys will be thrown to the wolves in the name of Polictical Correctness... after saying the above, I have to agree the guy should have known it would cause big s***
