I was in the Navy, dog tags said "none" and it was never questioned nor did it hurt my promotions.

I spent 11 years in the army, but one good thing about reconnaissance was we didn't stay in one place long enough to dig foxholes. When I suggested digging fighting positions to defend a hill we'd just assaulted during training, an instructor told me, "We call them ranger graves."

To all who Served, does not matter for what service or in what country, I Salute you for "Standing The Watch" and I Thank You for your Service and Sacrifice.

You sound like a former military with knowledge of a CIC. If you ever served... I thank you for your service and sacrifice, now let us not forget.... there will also be assholes among us, because we are just a slice of the many slices on mankind.

I was one, my dogtags read no pref

AO3(A/W) VFA-34 USN 2012-2017 hope everyone is well!

I was an atheist in an army band!

Some of us were even corpsmen, lol.

Yep I am one! Retired Navy 1988

And all of us appreciate that. By the way, GO NAVY....

You know here in UK people really don't care and if they do, they'd consider it a bit rude to say anything. The one and only time someone said something was my old clinical lead, I love her to bits by the way, but Irish and very Catholic. She said, "Oh Jayne yer an Atheist...but yer so lovelee" ( I tried to type that in a Southern Irish accent). I kinda feel sorry for you guys, it seems that Americans can be very judgey sometimes
