You can't separate a Veteran from the national flag. In the United States of America - quite literally so.
Recently, in a truly Kafkaesque turn of events, Veteran Affairs decided to drag an honorable American Veteran to court for the crime of …hanging an American flag on the VA's walls.
The department, already disgraced by its poor treatment of military heroes and plagued by scandals ranking from corruption to medical atrocities, visibly "seized the opportunity" to deal with one more whistleblower the VA's way.
