I believe I'm in agreement with the original poster about the Dan Newlin ads that feature what appear to be active military. Government entities and the military should not appear to be endorsing any one firm or business over another. These ads seem to show active military, possibly on military sites (or with active military equipment in the case of the Blue Angels) giving the impression of endorsing Mr. Newlin's business. Certainly the military members do not directly discuss his business, but thank him for his contributions, but nonetheless give the impression of endorsing HIM and if you've seen his ads he puts himself forward as his business. Its a fine line, but it would seem to be a little over the edge.
