    Militaries are really touchy about uniforms. And they are telling their employees what is expected of them within the guidelines that they are able to.

    If she isn’t impersonating a member of the military, they really can’t do anything but bluster about that. But they can charge any member with conduct unbecoming if they are found to have used her services, if found out.

    They never said civilians are prohibited from contracting her services.
