If they were indeed in uniform when they did this, then severe should be the response. I am no longer in uniform, so my comments are what I choose them to be. When I was in uniform, I made no political statements negative of the current adminsitration, Democrat or Republican.

It was against the rules. Period. You don't like it, get out!
