When you’re wearing a uniform, you’re speaking for your country’s military. Now, I’m as pro-disarmament as the next hippie, I have no opinion on the appropriateness of this portrayal, it’s just how military uniforms work. It’s weird that Lee would decide on wearing it or not as if it was a question of fashion. Makes me think he’s lying to appear a little rogueish, maybe an undercover anarchist who don’t care about no rules; an act to make Al think he’s not selling out to become a weapons supplier for the US military quite so much.

(Probably a little paranoid.)

This is a godsend for soldiers; it would be like the drone ‘soldierboys’ from Haldeman’s FOREVER PEACE; too powerful to bother killing anyone, they just round them up and arrest them. Except that the robots loaded with your soldiers’ minds might not want to die either . . .

In reply to malex. This is what I was thinking. Gawd knows I'm not the expert on gaydar-related smalltalk, but either they have history or there's current flowing for some other reason.

I have been wondering what Alastair ‘s reaction to all the military uniforms in that room.. I believe that is a medical pin on the officer’s lapel .
Great comic , well drawn.

Has OHS ever had any references at all that Al may have been in the military at one time? If he had ever served that would also explain the affinity the brass seems to have for him. In the panel where he is staring at the medical pin, his eyes look somewhat wide, and his eyebrows appear raised. Al’s emotions are harder to read than other characters due to his beard…and the fact he is a curmudgeon.

There is something important about those pins. Otherwise why would they pull Al’s attention like that? I mean being a general he is sure to have pins and crap all over his uniform so why would it drawn Al’s attention less it was unusual?
