Is It Illegal To Wear Military Patches?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Many people love collecting military patches and wear them on some special occasions. The collections are very valuable to be sitting in the closet box or some drawer.<\/p>\n

If you have some of them, don\u2019t worry, you can wear them as much as you want because they are legal to wear; it\u2019s your free will. If you are in a mood to wear it and it\u2019s making you proud, choose your favorite, and you are ready to go.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The article is kind of whimsical and upbeat.<\/p>\n

If you wear military patches in the street, you will not be stopped by police or some other force organization, so you have your right to wear everything you want and everything in what you feel comfortable and happy with. If wearing patches makes you happy and proud, you should do that.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

What do you mean “their” people?\u00a0 Is that like “you” people?<\/p>\n

On the other side, you can cause some negative reactions from other people, especially veterans. Veterans have some signs by which they can recognize \u201ctheir\u201d people; they are like one big family located in different places. It means them a lot when they meet someone of their own, and sometimes you can find yourself in conversation with a veteran who recognized your patch. By the talking, when he realizes that you didn\u2019t serve in any unit, they can get feeling like you are trying to steal their valor.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It seems to warn you to watch out for veterans.<\/p>\n

All this talking about \u201cstolen valor\u201d is too much. It\u2019s wrong that is likely spun a little out of control because no one can know other people\u2019s intentions, maybe that person who wears the patch has ( or had) a desire to join the military and serve the country, and that\u2019s their way to shows it. And something really important, no one can steal you your valor because it\u2019s yours and individual.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“That’s their way to shows it.”<\/em><\/p>\n

“… no one can steal you your valor…”<\/em><\/p>\n

You had me at “to shows it” and “steal you your valor.”<\/p>\n

Your take may be different than mine – but it seems to flirt with having a “wind-chimey, flower-child” approach to the writing.<\/p>\n

I couldn’t tell if the author was an attorney, but he advertises himself as a blogger and author that covers the law.<\/p>\n

The argument he makes is similar to what is wrong with this country – it is actually not illegal but may be immoral.\u00a0 The same is true about lying – it is not illegal to lie to the media and have your lies broadcasted or printed.\u00a0 It is different to lie under oath, but the media is free game.\u00a0 Politicians and ex-high level intelligence appointees fully understand this distinction.<\/p>\n

I don’t have strong opinions one way or the other about unit patches, but qualification patches may be a different issue. Some of you may feel differently.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
