Subject: Backward Flags on U.S. Uniforms

First of all, the soldiers are not wearing the our flag backwards. For example:
If you are looking forward at a flag pole and the wind is blowing from your right to your left, is the flag being flow backwards? Of course not. This is the same rule that is being applied to the wearing of the flag. AR 670-1, states it in a different manner but with the same effect. The flag is worn as it would fly. (see responses) To wear the flag facing the other way, what some consider the correct way, would be incorrect and disrespectful.

Secondly, and this is a valid point, if you want to get technical the soldiers are not wearing our flag backwards, heck, they are not even wearing our flag but in fact are wearing the "military national colors". I am sure that every one can see the gold boarder on the flag that they are wearing, signifying that it is the "military national colors.

One thing that I would like to know is why it was chosen to wear full color instead of a subdued version. To me this is like wearing a colorful target on your uniform and totally reduces the effect that camouflage is supposed to entail.

Hi Leonard,

I'll publish your opinion on this topic.

I understand that you are giving me the explanation that was given to you for the backward flag on the uniform, however, I'm claiming that the given explanation is a red herring; a bogus claim and a bogus juistification. I presume that you are in the military yourself.

You been given a crock of horse manure and you have bought it hook, line, and sinker The flag is reversed because the people who run the military are under the control of corporate satanists and satanists reverse every symbol that stands for something good and wholesome in this country. The red rose, the white dove, etc.-all Illuminati symbols. Read David Icke's books if you want to know the real deal.

Believe what you wish. You're being duped.

Regards, Ken.

PS You're not a flagpole. You're a human being.

Wow, thank you for responding.

Although I am not in the military I was at one time and my last assignment was in a unit that wore the nation military colors on the other shoulder. What some consider the correct way. It was the non-UN mission in Egypt called the MFO. They still wear it this way. As pointed out in an earlier letter, AR 670-1 leaves this up to the local Commander. ??

This is there a home page: http://www.mfo.org/homepage/homepage.asp
I'm sure you are aware of this unit since they use the white dove in their organizational symbol.

I do not know if you intended your reply this way, but I find you telling me that I have been duped and the language used somewhat hostile. But please understand that I am not saying that my opinion is the correct one.

Technically, when you are displaying any colors this way you are a flagpole, you just happen to be a living, breathing and animated version.

Do you think you could address the issue to me that they are in fact not wearing our flag at all, but the national military colors? I would like to know what you think. Because to me this issue is really not an issue at all.

On another note; the U.S. Flag is and has been displayed like this for many years. In the late 60's and early 70's I did a lot of traveling. When I entered a greyhound bus or an airliner from it right side I always saw the Flag, as what appeared to me at the time, to be displayed backwards. So I bothered to ask, and as explained to me then, that when the vehicle is moving forward, as is almost always the case, the Flag is being displayed as if it were an actual cloth flag and flying in the wind. For some reason this makes sense to me. Then later in the military I found out the Flag should be worn as it would fly. Again, this makes sense to me.

The U.S. Flag is still displayed this way on Greyhound buses and on many U.S. airliners, if not all, whether it is located near the forward entrance or on its vertical stabilizer. And it is displayed on both sides of these vehicles.

Let me say that I really like educate-yourself.org and I feel it is beneficial to all whom seek out knowledge on their own. And in no way did I intend for my letter to be taken as gospel or even as discrediting anyone else's opinion, I was just relaying what I know of the subject.

Actually I wish I had more friends that had opinions like yours, or those that would be willing to inform me of such.
There is just so much information to be learned and I find most people to be uniformed.

It occurs to me that since this is an issue with many people and since there is no law that needs to be changed in regards to how our soldiers wear our Flag or the national military colors (the one with the gold border), that this should be easier to get the regulations regarding such to be changed so that the Flag would be displayed the way most consider the correct way, secondly I would try to have it include that the Flag also be displayed above the unit patch, which is not always the case. Some kind of campaign/petition that would entail contacting our senators, congressmen, the Commander in Chief, Secretary of Defense, the Joint Chief of Staff and the Armed Service's Committee. Anyone of these could implement a regulation change. Just an Idea.

Thank you for the suggested reading material, unfortunately being on a non-connected VA pension (fighting to get it to connected status), I am on a very limited budget and can not afford to make these purchases. If my situation changes in the future (hopefully), I look forward to reading them.

Best regards,
Leonard

Hi Leonard,

Forgive my shortness. I answered the way I did out of frustration because the vast majority of Americans, especially young Americans, do not realize that they are being led, day by day and step by step, towards their final demise by their own government, or more accurately, by the traitors at the highest levels of the government and military who are toiling on behalf of a satanic globalist cabal whose plan is to destroy America and most of its population in order to bring in the one world government.

They not only are bringing about the destruction of America by employing a very systematic and preplanned script, but they are using the American people themselves-truck drivers, policemen, firefighters, government employees, school personnel, postal workers, military people, etc. and the money of the American people to carry out the destruction agenda for them. If you have ever seen film footage of Nazi troops at the beginning of the Holocaust in Europe, you saw that they forced the Jewish victims to first dig their own graves as a long continuous trench and then had them kneel down along the edge of the grave and they went down the line shooting them in the back of the head as each victim tumbled into the trench. That's exactly what's happening to the American people. They are digging their own graves with each passing day and THEY DON'T KNOW IT.

And the least aware group of all, the most gullible and the easiest to deceive, are young 18 year old American kids coming out of high school who are suckered into joining the military with a lot of carefully planned psychobabble designed to manipulate their emotions and appeal to their sense of 'duty' with 'training' and 'education' bringing up the rear. But when they get over to Iraq, they discover that the 'training' has everything to do with killing -mostly innocent civilians- and nothing to do with 'liberation and freedom'. And they soon realize that they are aggressors, members of an invading, occupying army who are hated to the core by the people whose country they have invaded. People who only want to live in peace and raise their children, but are forced to live the daily Hell of a war zone because of young American soldiers who were put there to 'liberate' them by an Alfred E. Newman look-a-like with a room temperature I.Q. . They are hated in exactly the same way that Czechs hated the Nazi soldiers when they invaded and occupied the "Sudatenland" in order to 'liberate ' it (claimed der Fuehrer). Just like the Philippine people hated the Americans when they came over to 'liberate' them from the Spanish during the Spanish -American War which was orchestrated into existence by the American self sabotage/sinking of the battleship "Maine" moored in Havana Harbor in 1898.

Remember, we would never have gone into Iraq if we didn't first go into Afghanistan. And we wouldn't have invaded Afghanistan if we didn't have the excuse of 'getting' Osama, who didn't have a damn thing to do with the orchestrated American/Israeli sabotage/demolition of the WTC towers and the military missile that plowed into the pentagon.

How many of those 1000+ kids who lost their lives in Iraq knew they were being used as dupes, just like so many pawns in the game? How many of them believed the utter lies and deceptive crap they were being told by this administration and their vest pocket media? How many policemen do you think realize that they are being militarized because they will eventually be used as SS troops and an adjunct to foreign military forces who will round up and transport MILLIONS AND MILLIONS of American citizens into readied concentration camps dotted all over north America after martial law is declared?

I am now so keenly aware of the full breadth of the NWO takeover agenda to destroy America that every news story I see on TV or hear on the radio is instantly recognized for its deception and propaganda spin. When you know the script in advance, the "news" is completely transparent. Every single news item in mainstream media and every single daytime & evening talk show host whether TV or radio, is mostly engaged in wholesale propaganda and deception. There are some moments of light when you hear David Icke or Alec Jones being interviewed on AM radio, but those are the rare exceptions.

Today, the Illuminati controls not only the executive branch-which they have had control of since Woodrow Wilson (perhaps earlier as they certainly arranged for Garfield's assassination), but they also control both houses of congress and the judiciary (the supreme court's involvement in the 2000 selection of Bush was flat out treason). The pentagon, the CIA, the FBI, the NSA, the ONI, etc., etc. are all under Illuminati control.

Following World War I (another Illuminati orchestrated war), the Illuminati tried to use Wilson to get America to join the League of Nations, but there were enough thinking and independent American patriots still remaining in congress to thwart that deception and they kept us out of Illuminati wars until world war 2 and FDR, an Illuminati front man, who set up Japan to be cut off from oil and rubber and then let Pearl Harbor happen even though he knew weeks in advance of the attack. The Iraq war and the coming invasion of Iran are just continuations of the Illuminati War-for Profit Machine that's been repeating itself in America since the Civil War. They use their well black-mailed dragoons in congress, and their baby-killing satanists in the administration to carry out their orders and they use the flower of American youth as chum bait for their military meat grinder. When they put in the Draft next Spring, they will now force America's daughters to also be a part of the Army's Slaughter Machinery. How proud will American father's feel when their sons AND their daughters comes back in body bags? Is this the America that Americans want or the one being forced down our throats by a government riddled with satanic traitors?

So the reversed flag on American troops is a minor story, just one of a thousand satanic symbol reversals seen in America. Yes, I agree that the flag orientation on a bus or airplane is logical. In earlier days, they actually did have real flags flanking cars and prop planes and boats, so to use the decal in the same way makes sense, but to carry over that 'explanation' to a military uniform is bogus. Their explanation that the star field of the flag "must" be closest to the wearer's heart is also pure horse crap. The Illuminati always has a cover story to justify their deceptions. They have teams of experts who concoct a story line that will provide 'plausible denial' for every possible lie or contradiction that they may be caught in. The explanations given in military manuals for reversed flags is one such story line concoction.

Regards, Ken

PS. You might be right about the full color version making a real bright target. Isn't that the idea when using chum bait?

Hi Ken,

I read that letter to you about the backward flag on military uniforms being about the way a cloth flag would fly or the stars close to the heart.

I enjoyed your reply to him. My martial arts class uses the "military national colors" (gold border) and our flags are not sewn on backward. ;-) :-)
