    Thanks for your service brother. And I'm not a veteran, but I did purchase an operator cap and put our flag on it along with the Christian flag, got the patch from" righteous grunt". I wear it to support the veterans and also to show my allegiance to God and my country.

    I always thought that if the flag was on the front, a hat or on armor that it should be facing the normal way because it never seems to be retreating like it would on the sleeve. Doesn't mean I'm right but it's what I always assumed. Anyone else thought the same?
    I remember the guy who started Grunt Style, he was a drill at Benning. Good guy.

    Appreciate the video and your service to our Country. I don't understand the facing forward flag on a hat. On the sleeves it always made total sense to me. If you were carrying the flag it would wave behind you. The hat thing almost led me to doubt myself on the true meaning and history. I am not a veteran, but I am a proud American and always a supporter of our troops. I have stayed away from wearing more flags as I am always afraid it is a bad look for someone who was not in the military. I am starting to rethink that though. I just need a shirt that says I am not a vet, I just support them.

  • @LetFreedomPing
    @LetFreedomPing 7 лет назад +25

    I wear the stuff mainly because they are usually veteran owned companies and I want to support my fellow veteran. And I agree completely, as a veteran, I love civilians who wear the stuff and support veterans. But Seeing a hipster rocking a pair of skinny jeans, acu blouse and a blue chord makes me want to choke him out with it lol. Basically, I'm all for it if you don't have to earn it

    As a Prior Service USMC and US Army Veteran (1987-1998, with 1 Year and 4 Months in the Army National Guard ( ARNG ) and US Army Reserve ( USAR) ), I have, and continue to wear, US Flag 🇺🇸 Operator Covers ( called " Headgear" in the Army and Air Force, and " Hat" by Civilians) and Combat Shirts with Tactical US 🇺🇸 Patches. Even on Armed Forces Day, Memorial Day, Army and Marine Corps Birthdays, Independence Day and Veterans Day, I tend to wear a Woodland Camouflage or Desert Camouflage Pattern M81 BDU " Raid Mod" Combat Blouse with Forward and Reverse US 🇺🇸 Patches.

    great video Mario. for those who haven't had the honor of service, the stars on the flag always face forward because they're held in the highest regard so it's worn (reversed) on the right side and (forward) On the left hooah

    • @gammondog
      @gammondog 6 лет назад +1

      That's right. A flag held by a standard bearer in a charge would have the wind created by his forward progress blow the stripped side back leaving the union facing forward. The opposite orientation would imply retreat. Americans never retreat!

    I think the flag would look better on the side of the hat instead of at the front. It's just too much. No disrespect intended.Perhaps a small unit or service insignia would go well at the front.

    First of all, it’s called “Assaulting Forward”, not “Facing forward”. And if you were truly a combat veteran you would know that the flag patch on your multicam hat is Incorrect!! It is “correct” and proper to wear the assaulting forward flag patch on your RIGHT shoulder so that it is “assaulting forward”. Hints the reason all of your “tactical shirts” have the “assaulting forward” flag on the RIGHT sleeve. It is not proper to wear an assaulting forward flag patch anywhere on the front of your uniform. But you already know that, right?! Lol So let’s make sure you are “displaying it properly” there bud!
