    Well, there you go, why should Biden display any military flag in his office if he wasn't a veteran?

    Would you put a USMC specialty tag on your vehicle if you never in the Marines?

    Yeah, why would the commander-in-chief do such a thing?
    Don't be afraid to see what you see

    Really?

    Commissioned in 1999 as an infantry officer, Vindman received a Purple Heart medal for wounds he received from an IED attack in the Iraq War in 2004.
    Vindman became a foreign area officer specializing in Eurasia in 2008, and assumed the position of Director for European Affairs with the NSC in 2018.

    In July 2020, Vindman retired after 21 years in the military.

    A person not on active duty who served honorably in time of war in the Army, Navy, Air Force, or Marine Corps may bear the title, and, when authorized by regulations prescribed by the President, wear the uniform, of the highest grade held by him during that war.

    November 11, 2019

    Appearing at his Oct. 29 deposition in full dress uniform, the decorated Army officer Vindman, now a White House National Security Council Ukraine expert, was the first witness who had actually listened to the phone call between President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that is at the heart of the Democratic impeachment campaign.

    Vindman was still active duty.

    Exactly, why would Dotard, the draft dodger, who called troops "suckers and losers"?

    Described HIS Vietnam service “It’s amazing, I can’t even believe it. I’ve been so lucky in terms of that whole world, it is a dangerous world out there. It’s like Vietnam, sort of. It is my personal Vietnam. I feel like a great and very brave solider,” Trump said in the interview when Howard Stern asked how he handled making sure he wasn’t contracting STDs from the women he was sleeping with.

    True but AFAIK that's only for ceremony. I can wear my uniform but only for VFW/American Legion functions. I can't wear it to work.

    Did the regs change? I need a link on this.

    In July 2020, Vindman retired after 21 years in the military.

    Regulation 670-1, Chapter 3, Section 3-5 says about wearing the uniform at national, regional, and local events:

    When Army participation in a public event has been approved in accordance with AR 360–1, commanders are responsible for determining the appropriate uniform for the event. Generally, protocol standards dictate standards of dress. For instance, when an invitation calls for business attire, the appropriate Army uniform is the service or dress uniform. However, in some instances, the Class C uniform may be appropriate.

    Chapter 10, Section 11-3 says about the occasions for wear:

    a. All-purpose wear. The male service/dress uniform is authorized for wear on and off duty, on and off the installation, unless restricted by the commander. The male service/dress uniform is not intended for wear as an all- purpose uniform when other uniforms are more appropriate.
    b. Approved wear. The male service/dress uniform is prescribed for year-round wear for all Soldiers, unless otherwise directed by the commander. Soldiers may wear variations of the male service/dress uniform:
    (1) On duty when prescribed by the local commander.
    (2) At social functions of a private or official nature, either before or after retreat, and while in transit to and from such functions. The male service/dress uniform is normally considered appropriate for social or official functions off the installation, such as memorial services, funerals, weddings, inaugurals, patriotic ceremonies, and similar functions.
    (3) When designated by the host of an event.
    (4) On other appropriate occasions, as desired by the individual.

    You don't even know were and when you can wear your uniform?

    What is it with you people? I know you didn't serve. You stated something as a fact. I asked for the reg. You didn't supply it, you gave me "mediaite".

    Ok, whatever loser.

    Taking the Trump U. reading 'comprehension correspondence course seemed like such a bargain at time, Dotard doesn't give refunds.

    Vindman testified in October of 2019.

    Vindman retired in July of 2020, moron.

    You have apparently not figured out that my question to you was rhetorical. I already know what the regulations say.

    Thank you for the entertainment. Good night now.

    Not even once did you mention it, you questioned it.

    Shows you're a lying, poser.
