RNC- Not removing hats for Star Spangled Banner!
During the MSNBC footage they showed 5 people (just in their shots-I'm sure there were more) wearing their hats during the national anthem. Worse yet, one of them was a serviceman.

2. Don't uniformed service members leave them on?
I think they're supposed to salute however.

5. Servicemen in uniform shouldn't be there.
The uniform is supposed to be "Above Politics".

Also, indoors, servicemen take their hats off. Unless they're standing armed sentry.

3. Lordy, and what was with those hats?
Some of them looked like Dr. Seuss hats.
