I’ve never seen Delta refuse someone in first class giving up their seat for another. Of course I’ve only been on 72 delta flights this year so I’m sure I’ve missed some.

On that note, we have an 82nd Airborne patch my wife was given by a guy she gave up a lay-flat Delta business class seat to. He was coming back from Afghanistan, told her after the flight that it was the most comfortable he had been in 6 months, said “thanks”, and gave her the patch. I don’t mind admitting I got a little choked up hearing about that when we got off the flight.
Normal policy is they don’t like you swapping seats between classes like that, but don’t seem to ever have a problem with it when it involves military. At least that’s what we’ve seen.
