Did you know that female Officers in the Navy were authorized to were a *Tiara* up until October 1st?

Yes - it's true. The Navy tiara was indeed a real uniform item for female Officers in the Navy. It would be worn both indoors and outdoors.

NAVADMIN 208/15 dictated its discontinuation as of October 1st, 2016.

Ha ha ha... wait that's a thing? I talked to one of the Females in my shop she laughed and said it was, but that the only women that wore them were the "narcissist who felt they were better than everyone and should be catered to"

Glad I never encountered one I don't think I would have stopped laughing at the Princess.
