The Obama administration has directed the military to not allow personnel to say “Christmas”, in spite of the holiday’s status as a federally-recognized holiday.
The reason given by armed forces officials is that not everyone celebrates Christmas and that out of respect for them, military members should refer to Christmas celebrations simply as “holiday”-themed festivities.
This prohibition comes in the context of a wider push for political correctness in society in general and the military in particular, as evidenced by the recent reprimanding of Navy Chaplain Wes Modder for simply discussing religion, as chaplains are wont to do, with military personnel.

BS BO
It’s not about Christmas, it’s about Christ. He knows I am closing in on him.
Hahahah! He’s making a fool of himself!!!
I’m quite sure our troops will be giving out ” Merry Christmas ” in spite of his illegal executive order! 80% of our active duty personal don’t like or trust Obama.
I doubt this is true, and even if it is….its not an order anyone will follow or enforce.
Well over 90% of our Military leans right, and of that 90% virtually 100% of them celebrate Christmas.
