A social media post about an armed soldier who was refused service at a Kentucky restaurant is going viral.
Billy Welch is an Army National Guard soldier. Welch says he always keeps his gun holstered to his side for safety reasons.
Welch says around 1:30 a.m. he stopped at the Waffle House in Nicholsville wearing his military uniform with his gun by his side.
After ordering his food, he said a waitress signaled for him to come over.
“I got up and I walked over to them, asked them how they were doing and stuff, and they said I’d have to take my firearm outside. I don’t feel comfortable taking my firearm away from me. I always keep it with me and they said, ‘it’s one of our policies.’”

No lie, 3 years in Germany. 1976-1979. Different times back then. Used the night stick a lot. Never had to draw my weapon, but was required to wear it at all times. On and off post. Yes, we carried the rank of our provost marshal while under arms in uniform. That was to allow us to apprehend officers as well. Yes, we did make arrests off post.
