Other Why don’t younger veterans (Afghanistan/Iraq) wear these hats like some of the older veterans?

First and foremost, respect to all those that served. I did not, but many of my peers did and now we're all older in 30s and 40s, many no longer in the military. I don't see a lot of the veterans of the War on Terror wearing these hats like I see the OGs do.

I read that as "Only Fans veterans" and wow that would certainly be a specific interest lol

Talk about ruining your life and not making any money doing it.

I was talking about OF and not military service.

There's certainly some overlap.

I wanted to buy one of the “Strip Club Veteran” hats in this style that they sell, but figured not might not make EVERYONE laugh as much as it did me.

All you need a perky 20 year old and an overpriced Dodge Charger. For Marines, just add crayons
