You couldn’t be more incorrect. My husband wears his Army Air Corp cap, WWII cap, or his POW cap showing his pride in being a veteran of the greatest country in the world. He will not speak about any of his experiences , especially being a POW, to anyone. He’s turned down multiple requests for interviews with media regarding his war experiences.
Pride in honoring our veterans should be respected. It sends a message to young people that they live in a free country due to the sacrifices of our military.
Give every military veteran the respect they deserve. The cap speaks louder than words.
