Perhaps growing up in an era where being a Veteran was like wearing a scarlet "A", colors my opinion.

As a 26 year active duty veteran including Viet Nam I have no issue with Dan Newlin posing with vets. It is the veteran's choice to participate. He also does an event honoring vets. I go to Mission BBQ fairly often and I'm impressed by the respect (and perks) they give to vets. I hope they stay in business for a long time.
