I'd guess none of them did.
But, I know for a fact that plenty of Veterans and Veterans' groups fought to get the proposed constitutional amendment to ban flag-burning defeated.
They fought to get that amendment defeated because, in their own words, they support constitutional free speech/expression -- which many put their lives on the line to protect -- even if they disagree with the message. I agree with those veterans, though I'd never be inclined to burn the flag on Veterans' Day or any other.
