"To the President of the United States"
-To the President!
"To fallen soldiers"
-To Fallen Soldiers!
"To the ladies 8) "
-Uhh...
Wow, drop it for mil ball - thats a requirement if you want to have fun - thats why everybody "undresses" . Basically, if you have anything like a service dress/Class A's, then you take off the coat and just put the nameplate on what you are wearing. Not sure how dress whites work, but if there is anything you can do to make it less uniformy, then do it.
By the way, when you toast the ladies, on the command of "Gentleman, please seat your lady", you pull out you dates chair and seat them. All males remain standing. Then the same person who gave the command says, "To the beautiful ladies!" and the guys repeat then everybody gets to sit.
If I'm not mistaken, real military balls don't involve ladies wearing uniforms - I believe it is the standard "women have a choice" deal. Actually i'm almost sure because traditionally, women are supposed to wear a white dress, but that has been loosened and they wear what they like.
