When asked what does a flag showing a rainbow represent, most people would say LGBT. In past years however, during and after World War 1, World War 2, the Global War on Terrorism (Iraq), and Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan, some Americans knew the rainbow flag as representing the US Army 42nd Infantry Division (which I served in myself from 1964-1969,
as a Combat Construction Specialist MOS 12B20.)
With thousands of soldiers having done military service wearing the rainbow patch on their uniforms, thousands having died in the process, and all having marched under the 42 Infantry's rainbow flag, it is quite an insult to see this prestigious emblem being displayed to represent sex perversion and mental illness. That activity should be outlawed, stopped, and the rainbow emblem be restored to its original, proper symbol of Army service/sacrifice/courage.
