I do recall seeing one evangelical dude trying to convert people at my last duty base when i was still on active duty. Never met him myself, but I'd see him out and about the barracks every Sunday; and I'd just point and laugh at him to my friends as a drank my beer. I think he knew not to come our way. Something about loud music, laughing, and beer bottles clanging around.
So the obvious question is, if i never spoke with him, how do i know he was a military member looking for converts? I've seen him in uniform around the barracks towards the end of the duty day. I think he was a desk jockey pencil pusher. I've also saw him in a suit and tie every Sunday with a book in his left hand, talking to people around the barracks to whoever would listen to him.
I never paid him much mind, what people do when they were off duty was their business. If he came my way, decked out in his suit and toting around his book, i probably would have laughed in his face.
