is that the camo uniform is his daily wear for work and that he just didn't take the time to change into something else. But we don't know how he was summoned or what he was told, or how much time he was given, or when the meeting was scheduled. Given how T does things, it may have been a "get your butt over here right now" call. And Milley probably didn't know about the walk to the church.

As far as Sorkin and TV shows and movies, don't be too hard on them. Fiction is fiction.
