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.

Is there a first amendment ? I am retired military. MERRY CHRISTMAS, MERRY CHRISTMAS, MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!
My antivirus identified Truth and Action as a “dangerous and suspicious site” and a risk to my computer. But I will check Snopes to see if this is another rumor/slander/hate-motivator.
Sticks and stones Bob Flynn, have a great day! 😉

Please don’t believe everything you see on FB. There is no truth in Truth and Action.
