And apparantly he chooses not to salute even a soldier *receiving the

it is astounding that you militaristic bigots feel that receiving the
medal, along with a speech honoring his actions is insufficient, and
that a civilian must give a gratuitous and unnatural hand gesture to
appease YOUR misplaced sense of honor. *The good sergeant can speak for
himself if he feels offended. *I honor his actions. *You are attempting
to impugn his honor and this country with trivialities. *Perhaps you
have forgotten that at this time we are a country governed by civilians..
* If you want a country where salutes are mandatory, there are countries
where the military is in charge - take your idiocy there and begone.
