Humor When Unintended - The Air Force in (Mistaken) Uniform

Senior White House Advisor and former Chicago lawyer Valerie Jarrett caused a stir recently, as revealed 5 days ago by frontrunner In From the Cold.

"As an officer sporting several stars walked past Jarrett, she signaled for his attention and said, 'I’d like another glass of wine.'”

The Unintended Humor

Excerpt from commenter J.R. at In From the Cold (third comment) here:

You're kidding, right? You were in the Air Force, and in how many years of service, you never got mistaken for a waiter at a mixed formal function? I've gone to four black-tie weddings in my USAF mess dress and was mistaken for staff each time.

And you may certainly compare attire and decide for yourselves how well J.R. has made his point. Discounting the incredible forest of ribbons below, or from the rear, I would tend to agree with J.R.:

Submarines are always silent and strange.
