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 this for real? Didn’t see any info on the writing of this order. It goes against free speech and freedom of religion. Don’t think it’s true.
The true one and only ANTI CHRIST
Kevin Clark, helping millions of people gain access to HEALTHCARE and Employment is what? Hating Americans??
Merry Christmas to all military
Just to appease Muslims.
Obama continues to be an idiot. Our country and the military deserves to have a commander in chief who knows what he’s doing!
