Didn't say anything. What would be the point? It's been miserable for him and all the others the past 10 years and we may as well work together for safety and sanity's sake.
So.......you are concerned that he's wearing sUAL wings sitting in a sCAL jet? According to your uniform police style side of the fom, you should have counseled him on the proper display of the uniform. Did you take that course of action or, did you feel the big picture response would be to shake his hand, have fun, and enjoy some good beers and conversation? For "safety and sanity's sake" of course. Right right right.
