Well yes. If he chose to go in uniform he had four choices. He could have gone in the uniform of a Captain in the British Army, a Lieutenant in the RN, a Flight Lieutenant in the RAF or as a Colonel in the Irish Guards. The first 3 are legitimate military ranks he holds. He is entitled to wear the last because he is the Irish Guards' Colonel, which is an honorary position he was appointed to. Kind of curious why he chose that route, though aesthetics can't be ruled out because of how distinctive the Guards' uniform is.
