A vet who apparently couldn’t wait to see Mayor Michael Bloomberg end his 12-year tenure vulgarly saluted hizzoner right before the Veterans Day parade Monday.

The unidentified man interrupted Bloomberg as he addressed the marchers at Madison Square Park and let out several curse words, much to the shock of the crowd around him. As officers escorted the man out of the park, Bloomberg shrugged off the incident and noted that it was all part of America’s freedoms.

"In no other country could someone do that," he said.
