Former United States Marine Alex went to have his license renewed. He was proudly wearing his United States Marine Corps cap.
When it came time to take his picture for his license, a Department of Motor Vehicles employee asked Alex to remove his cap.
Alex politely but firmly declined to remove his hat.
Alex questioned why other people weren’t being required to remove their head ware. The DMV official responded that they’re allowed to keep their head wear on “for religious reasons.”
To that, Alex responded, “when [I] entered the Marines [I] declared an oath to the USA, and one nation under God, so that [my] oath was under God so just as good as [my] religion.”

Today Alex went to the DMV to renew his license.
When he was told to go have his picture taken he noticed that there were some men having their picture taken, these men were wearing turbins on there heads.
Alex was asked to take his hat off to have his picture taken.
He said “no”, and “no” again when asked the second time.
When he was asked why he would not remove his hat he said, “those men didn’t remove their head wear, I shouldn’t either”.
It was explained that this was their attire and their religion.
Alex told the DMV person that what he had on was his attire and when he entered the Marines he declared an oath to the USA, and one nation under God, so that his oath was under God so just as good as his religion.
Well, the DMV people didn’t know what to do, they spoke to supervisors and called Sacramento.
Alex was told, after an hour, that he could wear his hat for the picture and if there were any problems they would let him know and he could appeal their decision.
He told them if there was a problem he WILL appeal it.
Alex feels no one has more right to display their head gear then a Veteran or active service person.
When he left several employees at the DMV clapped quietly for him.
He has spoken to few other Veterans and they plan to do the same.ALL VETERANS SHOULD DO THE SAME!! Time to start taking our country back from the liberal idiots bent on its destruction!
PASS IT ON TO ALL YOUR VETERAN FRIENDS!!
I LIKE THIS GUY A LOT!! A REAL AMERICAN!!!
