Default Veterans Day fracas?

I read in The Daily Sun letters today that there was a rukus at the Veterans Day ceremony at the Veterans Memorial in The Villages when the speaker politicized his speech. Some people got up and left including one member of the honor guard on the stage.

A friend told me today that there were actually some physical altercation(s) during the retired general's speech between audience members.

Was this true? I was out of town so I am just getting this second-hand.

I cannot imagine Villagers actually coming to blows over an unfortunate speech event from a retired general.
