I was on a submarine. We never had the president visit, but we did have a 4 star air force general in charge of all nuclear weapons visit, and it’s a big fucking deal. We had training, for the entire crew, on who he was, and what his official title is, Stratcom, and we used it. That’s how it works in the Navy, and it’s centuries old.
There is no universe in which the military accidentally fucks up the customs and courtesies due to the commander in chief. Impossible. That would require dozens, maybe hundreds of people, including commanding officers and higher, to not know their own rules. Not possible.

And this gives me hope. Thank you.
Legend, thanks again. Makes complete sense and valuable to have a military perspective.
We are getting very close. The domino‘s are just starting to fall and be noticed.
