        Thanks for the clarification. As a civilian, you're right, I wouldn't know that 'congrats' was OK. I always thank a vet for their service.

        You should be ashamed of yourself. Your cheesy, tacky posturing on behalf of your liberal ideology is disrespectful to that sergeant. Shame.

        Trump said "Congratulations" directly to a Purple Heart recipient & you're accusing Kevin of disrespecting that sergeant?? Seems logical. 🙄

        Obama once said he visited 57 US states. People make mistakes in word choice.
