Good on the guy for 'sticking it to the man.'
I'm unable to upload photos from work (shh, you ain't seen me, right?!), but may I refer the thread to Robin Olds as a wing commander in Vietnam. (Believe he also commanded an RAF squadron as well in the early 1950s).
FFP: the mandatory 'US PT gear' is roundly and deeply resented in the USAF. As is the PT itself...
Finally, while I can appreciate the humor and 'well done, chap' sentiments, would you be saying the same if were a US exchange pilot in one of your squadrons 'sticking it' to a flag officer?
