Some of them might take exception to the wear of a uniform item (mess dress jacket) in an unapproved manner.

I know this from experience. I was called out one time for wearing my BDU jacket because I still had the U.S. Air Force tape over the left pocket. I had removed my captain's bars and various AF patches, but overlooked that last item.

Caveat!

Yha there wont be any other Military type folks there, well at least not any officers or anything. so he should be okay. and thats why i suggested he get a USAF tartan kilt!

WHEW!

BTW, I'm not sure what is more frightening, the fact that such sites exist or that people actually rent the things advertised. What's the saying? "It hurts my eyes to look!"
