An unidentified female Navy Officer, staying at an upscale NYC hotel with family while visiting during Fleet Week festivities last week was taken aback when her group was stopped by bouncers and prevented from entering the hotel's bar one evening. At first, nobody could figure it out, everyone was dressed in professional attire; until the bouncer's indicated that the Officer's Class A Uniform did not fit it's criteria for female dress, and they weren't backing down. How about it? How would you address such an insulting situation?

Management agreed that this was a training issue and the bouncer was in error. Failing to inform management of this training oversight meant that others would similarly be negatively treated by an erroneous interpretation of the standards.

Communication is key. Appropriate dress a explained to bouncers might not have ever included female military dress. Discussing it with someone with more experience at the place of business would be able to address gray areas in policy such as this. I'm sure it was handled well.

PO2 Morris Langworthy, Jr - Most bouncers are chosen for muscles not brain!!! The steroids don't help either!!
