Got this in an email today-BD45

Rules for the Non-Military (Civilians):

1. The next time you see any adults talking (or wearing a hat) during
the playing of the National Anthem - kick their ass.

2. When you witness, firsthand, someone burning the American Flag in
protest - kick their ass.

3. Regardless of the rank they held while they served, pay the highest
amount of respect to all veterans. If you see anyone doing otherwise,
quietly pull them aside and explain how these veterans fought for the
very freedom they bask in every second. Enlighten them on the many
sacrifices these veterans made to make this Nation great. Then hold them
down while a disabled veteran kicks their ass.

4. If you were never in the military, DO NOT pretend that you were.
Wearing battle dress uniforms (BDUs) or Jungle Fatigues, telling others
that you used to be 'Special Forces'. .. is going to get your ass kicked!

5.Collecting GI Joe memorabilia, might have been okay when you were
seven years old, now, it will only make you look stupid and get your ass
kicked.

6. Next time you come across an *Air Force* member, do not ask them, 'Do
you fly a jet?' Not everyone in the Air Force is a pilot. Such
ignorance deserves an ass-kicking (children are exempt).

7. If you witness someone calling the *US Coast Guard* 'non-military',
inform them of their mistake - and kick their ass.

8. Next time Old Glory (the US flag) prances by during a parade, get on
your damn feet and pay homage to her by placing your hand over your
heart. Quietly thank the military member or veteran lucky enough to be
carrying her - of course, failure to do either of those could earn you a
severe ass-kicking.

9. "Your mama wears combat boots" never made sense to me - stop saying
it! If she did, she would most likely be a vet and therefore would kick
your ass!

10. Bin Laden and the Taliban are not Communists, so stop saying 'Let's
go kill those Commies!' And stop asking us where he is! Crystal balls
are not standard issue in the military. That reminds me - if you see
anyone calling those damn psychic phone numbers, let me know, so I can
go kick their ass!

11. "Flyboy" (*Air Force*), "Jarhead" (*Marines*), "Grunt" (*Army*),
"Squid" (*Navy*), "Puddle Jumpers" (*Coast Guard*), etc., are terms of
endearment we use describing each other. Unless you are a service
member or vet, you have not earned the right to use them. Using them
could get your ass kicked.

12. Last, but not least, whether or not you become a member of the
military, support our troops and their families. Every Thanksgiving and
religious holiday that you enjoy with family and friends, please
remember that there are literally thousands of soldiers, sailors,
marines and airmen far from home wishing they could be with their
families. Thank God for our military and the sacrifices they make every
day. Without them, our Country would get it's ass kicked.

'It's the Veteran, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom of the
press.'

'It's the Veteran, not the poet, who has given us the freedom of
speech.'

'It's the Veteran, not the community organizer, who gives us the freedom
to demonstrate.'

'It's the Military who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the flag,
and whose coffin is draped by the flag, who allows the protester to burn
the flag.'

AND ONE MORE:

13. If you ever see anyone either standing for or singing the national
anthem in Spanish - KICK THEIR ASS.
 
I love it. I am tired of the disrespect that I witness at ball games and such. I always seem to be in the minority of people that find it offensive. I realize it can not be forced. That is what all of us veterans fought for, but it would be nice if people were compelled to show a little respect.
 
One of these rules makes perfect sense to me. I have had countless people tell me they were in SF when they were obviously never in the military. COUNTLESS. It drives me nuts.
