As a somewhat recently retired soldier, I don't mind this at all. It's no different than putting Butch and Smokey in space on an astronaut's body, or on a bronco in the rodeo on a cowboy's body. Butch isn't claiming to take the same risks as soldiers, or equating himself to them in any serious way (in other words, he's not Winslow'ing). It's not disrespectful of our troops at all. I kinda like it. Go Vols!
