I have family and coworkers considering the military. I fully back their freedom to make this choice but thought I'd like to get y'all's opinion on what to say when they ask about how our politicians impact the military. Your thoughts?

Check your Politics at the door along with your civilian attire. We are sworn to the president and those officers appointed over us. Make your opinion known in the voting booth but other than that keep them private. We come from society as a whole and just as diverse politically. Did it for 21 years and had a blast and it was an honor and pleasure to serve alongisde all of you!

Our job is to execute policy, regardless if we agree with it or not (as long as it's not illegal of course). If your friends cannot be okay with that, they need not apply.
