If you'd actually joined the military, you'd know that a lot of celebrations and rememberances take place in bars.
Promotions, frockings, welcoming a new member to the command, seeing a longtime shipmate off, and yes.........gathering together to remember a lost comrade are all things that military people do in bars.
And if you've got a problem with that, ever attend a wake?
its not a memorial service...
And you would call it what?
an excuse to gain sympathy for sucker punching a fellow vet in a bar for having a different opinion then running away ,by saying he was at an "unofficial memorial" service..
