How safe do you feel these days with identifying yourself as connected to the military? That could mean wearing uniform or just unit t-shirts in public, bumper stickers and vanity plates on your car, identifiers on your home or property?

I live in Texas a very Pro-Military state and am very proud of my military background. I have no problems with sticker on my truck, t-shirts, or even license plates. I get a lot of benefits because I'm military, even if I don't want them.

I generally won't advertise it at all off base. The only time I do is if I make a trip off while I am on a work shift and I am still in uniform. I wouldn't say that I wouldn't feel safe even if I did though. It would depend mainly on where you are and the time of day and where I am currently at there isn't many places I wouldn't trust going shy of east St. Louis and I wouldn't want to go there even in civvies.

Personally I prefer to blend in with everyone else. I don’t know why but it really hate it when my family brags in public about me being in the Army. I prefer to have that normal guy living a normal life appearance.
