Courtney - I was not getting "excited" - and at my age far from it - I was just interested in the protocol of which I was not familiar. If they have got medals then they certainly deserve to wear them proudly, even in pyjamas if they so wish as far as I am concerned.
I just thought it unusual for serving officers wearing medals not to be wearing uniform -nothing more complicated than that. But then, as I originally said, what do I know.
