TVC E, LIFESTYLE – There are rules that guide the conduct of those who attend a formal dinner.
The etiquette guiding a dinner, held by an arm of the military, like the Nigerian Airforce, comes with so much finesse.
Rules guiding every aspect of the event are quite distinct from those of a regular dinner.
The regimentation, which is typical of the military, starts with the walk in.
Guests are seated only when the special guest of honour takes his sit.
And when dinner is served, again everyone takes dressing from the special guest of honour.
The highpoint of the dinner is the loyal toast which is proposed in honour of the President of the country.
The regimental dinner is typically different from any other dinner and it is meant to foster discipline among members of the armed forces.
The ceremony which is exclusive to the military will now hold regularly across air force formations in Nigeria.
