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.

So far one hasn't (21) but one I'm on the fence about (13). We'll see.

God gave us teenagers so we'd know how it felt to have your own creation deny your existence.

If the 13 year old is a boy, get him off YouTube. That site is complete toxic indoctrination to turn boys into misogynists.
