Disrespect for uniform

Richard Feynman talks about how his father taught him "disrespect" for figures in uniform. He remembers being shown a newspaper picture of people bowing in front of the Pope. His father told him that the people were bowing to the name and position that the uniform brings. Feynman was brought up to believe that a man is the same whether wearing a uniform or not.
