That is a no no. Have no idea why they had them in the background.

They will undoubtedly get reprimanded.

Just as General Mark Milley realized it was wrong for him to be pulled into Trump's little bible waving photo op.

If that were the case, instead of you lying, they wouldn't be investigated. Plus it is cut and dry the soldiers were in the wrong. Anymore LYING you want to do today apdst? :lamo

Under DOD Directive 1344.10, members of the armed forces who are on active duty are permitted to express their personal opinions on political candidates, make a monetary contribution to a campaign, sign a petition to place a candidate's name on the ballot, and attend a political event as a spectator. Members on active duty may not participate in partisan activities such as soliciting or engaging in partisan fundraiser activities, serving as the sponsor of a partisan club, or speaking before a partisan gathering. In addition, all military members, including National Guard and Reserve forces, are prohibited from wearing military uniforms at political campaign events.

They deserve punishment appropriate to their infraction, assuming they are active or reserve military. Its appropriately under investigation.

Insults and personal attacks are abdolutely all you people have...lol

Aw look another Trump supporter who doesn’t understand the difference between a personal attack and attacking their comments. Thank you for showing more retarded comments, lies and deflections. :lamo
