I've read the same thing. However, it's happening everywhere. MLB on the back of their jerseys, NCAA & NFL football teams with a flag on their helmet, and professional officials displaying the flag on their uniform.

It just seems to me that displaying the flag on a uniform simply expresses support for each other, our country and the men and women who have died during these tragic events. As an American, I feel I have as much right to diisplay the flag as somone else does to burn it. As long as it's done with dignity and respect, there's nothing improper about it. To try to read political or legal implications into to it is simply overbearing.

That's just my opinion. No need to agree or disagree.
