Quote:He wasn't "banished" by the base commander.  It was his unit commander that didn't want him to be invited.  I don't really expect people that have never served in the military to really know the difference.

 

Also, a retiree is allowed to invite anyone that he chooses as a guest speaker at his own retirement ceremony.  Even if his Commanding Officer doesn't want the guest there, the CO has no authority or right to "banish" someone.
 

I know the difference, I'm working with what I read. Now then, you go right ahead and tell a Navy Captain or Air Force or Army Colonel that someone they don't want on their base will be there. See how far those "rights" get you.
