Did anyone else notice she used her LEFT hand to display the offending gesture?

Exactly my sentiment. I've heard that some folks are screaming that she is exercising her right to free speech and she should be left alone. So we should exercise our right to free speech as well and shame her until she realizes how disgusting her "joke" was! If she wanted to challenge authority, there were far more less offensive avenues she could have taken. Since she decided to exercise her right in an offensive manner, then she needs to accept the consequences of her actions.

She and the person who took the photo are no longer employed. Don't know if it was a termination or resignation...

Nothing that ding bat can do will diminish the honor of that place. Everyone just relax.

I think what she did was pretty stupid. However, I don't think she should lose her job. I think the public shaming is enough. My 2 cents.

Termination. She was on a company paid trip, and the company does not want this act associated with their company. Whether they truly wanted to fire them or not, I would say they were terminated to protect the company image. It that respect, I agree with the decision to terminate them.

They are both morons for three reasons...
1) Being disrespectful at such a place.
2) Taking a picture of it.
3) Posting it on FB.

Punks could learn some respect...although, I would not expect them know what this place truly means. To them wars are just something they hear about in the news, and something other people take part in.

There is a pathetic irony to incidents such as these. The very people whom she so disrespectfully mocks are the very people who died defending her right to do so.
