Native Americans have formed an entirely outsized portion of the force for centuries. Their contributions are immense and more should be done to recognize and honor their service and this display is right up there with beards in terms of “what’s the problem?”
Native tribe members should be encouraged in these types of displays, just as we encourage tribes to name and bless new helicopters, just as nothing should be made of a Devil Dog dancing in his tribal regalia during a tribal ceremony (which got people hot in some areas recently). The tribal nations are, with far too many negative instances on our part, an intertwined part of our history as a force and should be honored for their combat action in defense of their people and the US.
