Comments on Facebook and a similar Twitter post were supportive of his admission.

 

“No one understands Air Force uniforms anyhow. I think you are safe,” wrote MMA fighter Tim Kennedy, a former Army Ranger.

 

Another commenter suggested Lengyel could use Maverick’s “because I was inverted” line from the 1986 blockbuster film “Top Gun” as an excuse.

 

“One thing is for sure … My ribbons will NEVER be upside down again,” Lengyel said on Facebook.

 

Lengyel is the 28th chief of the National Guard Bureau, a post he’s held since 2016. He was commissioned in 1981 through the Reserve Officer’s Training Corps and has more than 3,000 flight hours, mostly in the F-16 fighter.
