Indian Country Today has details on the elder in that viral video.
His name is Nathan Phillips, a Vietnam veteran who holds a regular ceremony for Native American veterans buried at Arlington National Cemetery. https://newsmaven.io/indiancountrytoday/news/outrage-as-non-native-youth-wearing-maga-hats-taunt-and-disrespect-native-elder-jy7UVwdg8kK2uvT0L-JOig/ …

Now, Indian Country Today is going all the way back to 2008 to correct an article in which Phillips described how he was spit on when he returned home from Vietnam.

This article has been adjusted from it’s original version to show that Nathan Phillips was a Vietnam-era veteran and that he was spit on while in uniform as opposed to when he was returning from combat.

Hi Ms. Bengal:
There is a possible error in your story.
You wrote that Phillips "joined the Marines and served as an infantryman in the Vietnam War," but the Washington Post reports he never served in Vietnam.
What is your source?
Thanks.

Was he spit on while in the brig or while being court martialed?

That wasn't spit. That was the other 2 winos in the jail cell pissing on him.

Eh, I'll throw him a bone. He knew he had nothing, he just wanted to argue and split hairs as long as he could. To him, it was a debate exercise.
Shreveport, on the other hand....
