Good shot, and nice capture, I like the movement of the flag and the gritty reality of the topic. Bumping up.

I like the flag and the b&w. Composition is fine, technically nothing major.
Critisism: I don't particularly like the pose of the veteran himself. He looks like he is drinking from a bottle(?). Alos the person in the background is a bit of a disturbance. All this imo, obviously. Good luck!

nic emotive shot. The person off in the distance is distracting though - might try removing them

I hope a newspaper got ahold of this when all of that protest was going on. It makes quite a poignant statement. Thanks for sharing it.
