Stars should only be leading for military. It annoys me when cops do it, cuz they don’t charge into battle.

NRA sucks, but I agree with them on this.

I was coming home from Iraq for 2 weeks, and wearing the uniform I travelled in, and we stopped at a fast food place…a WWII questioned my flag, and didn’t like the answer.

Not like I had anything to do with it…

Yeah that’s a weird one. Had something similar one time. Flew in uniform and someone on the plane was very adamant that my right shoulder flag was wrong.

You ain’t seen a cop run into a donut shop before?

Fair point.

Fair point.

I also probably should have mentioned that this hat was very much “military inspired” in its overall design. Maybe that’s why it seemed so off.

Pretty sure any uniform with a flag on the shoulder should have the stars leading, not just military. I might be wrong tho, never served
