Here's a fun one. Came through KCM this morning in civvies with just a small backpack and about a week's worth of stubble. TSA is doing random bag screenings at the checkpoint and I get selected to open my backpack and let them swab it. When the TSA guy finished he hands me back my bag and says "Thanks Cap". Didn't correct him.
