Brandon Garabrant was pictured in his military uniform in Greenfield, N.H., before he was killed in the line of duty, June 20, 2014, in Afghanistan. When Garabrant graduated from high school he wanted to wear his Marine uniform but school officials said policy bans uniforms and requires graduates to wear blue caps and gowns. A new state law passed this year now allows high school graduates to wear their military uniforms if they have completed basic training.

Can the cap and gown worn by high school graduates coexist peacefully with military uniforms worn by classmates destined for the armed services? Until recently, the answer in New Hampshire was no, but now a law went into effect allowing graduates the opportunity to wear their uniform at commencement ceremonies if they have completed basic training.

New Hampshire joins Pennsylvania and California, which passed similar laws in 2011 and 2009 respectively.

What do you think? Do you support the recent New Hampshire law?
