You mention someone taking you bayonet, was this in checked luggage or was this in a carryon with your calculator.

TSA should treat service members with respect.

However experience tells them that soldiers, mp's etc may have souveniers in bags that are not allowed in checkpoints. knifes, ammo, etc.
Those aren't necessarily prohibited items in checked luggage though. Carryons, sure.
