There's a new insignia showing up on the sleeves of a small group of military men, but instead of denoting rank, it advertises their love for a cartoon inspired by the girlish 1980s plastic toy called "My Little Pony."

So-called "Bronies," adult men who are fans of the TV show "My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic," have apparently been around at least since 2010, when the Hasbro-owned cartoon first aired. Within their ranks are "Military Bronies," service members from all branches of the military who share their love of the show and wear the "cutie mark" -- a Rainbow

That's sad and pathetic on their part. I'm not going to bash their likes, even though I really really want to call their mental state into question, and I'm going to go a different route.

That patch does not belong on the uniform. It's a disrespect against what that uniform represents. It's against regulation and you can bet these soldiers will be disciplined. The uniform is not there for you to customize as you please, it's to send a message, and to represent that America's military is strong and united.

These soldiers have no integrity.

Troops could wear evening gowns and heels on the front line for all I care, although I wouldn't recommend it.
