A solider has infuriated the online military community by posting a picture of herself on Instagram hiding in her car to avoid saluting the flag during retreat ceremony, which signals the end of duty for the day.

An Instagram picture of Pfc. Tariqka Sheffey has gone viral. Her post reads:

“This is me laying back in my car hiding so I don’t have to salute the 1700 flag, KEEP ALL YOUR ‘THATS SO DISRESPECTFUL/HOWRUDE/ETC.’ COMMENTS TO YOURSELF cuz, right now, IDGAFFFF.”

I wonder how she slipped by. Such dishonor.  :mental:

If SECDEF wants to cut 100,000+ troops, here's the first candidate.

The sad thing is...looking at her FB and Google + page is that she's got family members in the service as well...so she comes fromt that background...and she's got a daughter too. Now she's going to be without a career in the military.

I would certainly hope so, but with the current political climate, you never know.

Scumbags are everywhere, even in uniform.

I'm sure the chain of command will be dealing with this in an appropriate way.  :evillaugh:

Ah, another 10 percenter.  I bet the day she gets tossed, her entire command will jump for joy, especially the NCO's.

If Dear Leader is looking to cut the services back to pre-WWII force levels, she certainly made herself look like an inviting way for her command to do it's part for the cause.

Arrested for failure to appear. I suspect she has been arrested more than once. I wonder when she enlisted.

After the post was caught by the Army Times, Sheffey responded with a video on Instagram thanking those who stood by her.

“That s— to me was not that serious. I am not a disrespectful soldier and I really appreciate you all,” she said.

Definitely a DUer.   :argh:
