Buttigieg - where is his unit patch, branch, name tape, or the US flag? Both arms are blank:

From 2020: "No Unit Patch. No Name Tape. No ‘U.S. Army’ Patch. No Deployment/Combat Patch. No American Flag Patch On Right Sleeve. Uniform Clean As a Whistle," the post reads. "This guy is a fraud."

The article retorts that while in Afghanistan:

"When they went into bazaars on Fridays they had to remove all forms of identification, such as patches," said Chris Meagher, national press secretary for Buttigieg’s campaign.

Is that a plausible explanation?
