CSAF Gen Merrill McPeak said, "US Navy uniforms are similar to those worn by commercial ship officers. In the Air Force we should have uniforms that resemble airline pilots."

No kidding. He really said that. So they took the epaulettes off. Everybody but McPeak hated that.

After that incident, combined with letters from retired general officers saying, "Are you FREAKIN' CRAZY?" the epaulettes went back on, so that is why we do not look like Navy bus drivers today.
