I did 13 years in the USAF and I found nothing wrong with anything from that time, as did many vets that I know. It's kinda like what the far right has done with the term "woke". Taken something that was originally aimed at keeping aware of police brutality and turning into any number of non related topics.

Thank you for your service and your input. When all this was going on I mentioned that my late father, a 30 year USAF veteran (served two tours of duty in the Viet Nam "conflict"), would have been in support of those athletes. I was lambasted by some that said there's no way he'd feel that way and no real veteran would feel that way. I think I know my late father better than them.
