be upset with a person identifying as the wife of a veteran. I really don't like what this woman is representing in terms of political views to the nation but what does that have to do with her being the spouse of a veteran. It would seem to me that whenever someone joins the military, their family members are in it for the long haul too. Don't think it has anything to do with rank either. Perhaps military personnel should not marry. Would that make it better for you?
