His question, paraphrased, was, "How could a Navy vet also be a
Vietnam vet". I see nothing to connotate the letter writers
misunderstanding a Missing Man Formation.

There was another letter that continued this topic.

To his credit, the complainant, Mr. MacRae, tendered a written apology
which was published in The Republic on 9 July:

[...]
I had no idea of the significance of the flyby, and would never have
insulted such a fine and respectful display had I known.
[...]
I served in the U.S. Navy and am a Vietnam veteran.

Anyone else have trouble reconciling these two statements?
