Not so much a big deal, but an honor to veterans. We are now officially authorized to render the military courtesies to the flag in civilian clothing.

Most of the folks standing at the beginning of the ball game won't notice it, but the other vets will. It is a privilege that is only extended to veterans, and because of that is somewhat special.

Must one remain uncovered? Or can we wear our headgear?
