Epaulettes.

We defer to a stranger with a set of epaulettes.

Badges, baton or thing to point with are optional.

See him on the streets re-directing vehicle and foot traffic, in building foyers controlling visitors, on the edge of merry-go-rounds scolding small children.

People and organisations pin epaulettes on sentences as power symbols.

Vigorously defend.

Zero Tolerance.

Committed to.

Totally committed to.

Dry clean only.

Do not wash or tumble dry with the Truth.
