He was sitting and that upset military people. He consulted one seeking a middle ground that would still allow his message to get across. He actively sought a compromise but clearly that wasn't good enough for everyone. Not that you could reasonably expect it to be.
There is no compromise you show respect or you don't. Being a soldier doesn't make one an expert on flag or anthem etiquette. The guidelines are clear you stand, face the flag, remove your hat, put your hand over your heart.
It's a total fng insult to anyone who's ever worn the uniform or knows the rules and respects the flag.
