When Jacob finally arrived, there was already quite a lot of people, or at least it seemed so from all the ships and cars parked outside the manor.
Jacob was wearing his best uniform, the one he usually wore for promotion ceremonies. He thought his own cheap suit wouldn't look well here. The dark blue uniform had Captain insignias on the shoulders and a DFC medal sticked on his chest.
At the entrance, he's shown his invitation to the butler, and then walked in. He saw a lot of unknown people inside, but also a few BAF pilots he knew. He nodded towards them with smile as a greeting.
When looking around more carefully, he saw a man, quite weirdly clothed for this occasion, who was apparently trying to not be seen here. He looked familiar, but he disappeared into the crowd as fast as he has shown.
Jacob has ordered himself a glass of scotch and sat down to the nearest table, waiting. He was already getting quite nervous from the amount of nobles around him.
