It may be due to those on leave soldiers being threatened and attacked a while back - ie - for their own protection - sad but maybe why

Must admit Margaret, didn't particularly like to comment here as wondered if I was missing the point. Aren't all service personnel advised or 'instructed' not to wear their uniform in public whilst not on duty ?
Purely, for their own safety and safety of others around them I would have thought. They would certainly be a target whilst out on their own or with their families. Nothing to do with the rest of us being ashamed of them.
