Nomad, I have had the prevlidge to serve our wonderful country in both the Navy and Army and like BB said will mind my manners unless I need to act diffrently later....although I may not like some countries or the people I always render honors to the colors when they were presented as is required by uniformed personel...I hope the individual that was in error has been corrected and will now act accordingly.

I remember once when I was in the sixth grade, every start of the day the pledge would be sent over the intercom and we would follow along, once I was playing around and crossed my eyes, after it was over, The teacher called me up to the front of the class and pounded my ass a few times. A lesson that kind of stuck with me and it sounds like the person at the nationals should get the same lesson that I did from Mr. Franco, who himself was a Cuban exile!

It sometimes is the foriener that appreciates what we have here the most....since they have lived in places where they dont have the freedoms and luxuries we have here in America....unfortunatly some just dont know what they have til they lose it....I pray that we will pass these troubled times but as always I am vigalent and prepared for what has to be done if and when the time comes.
