Yes there is: over weight guys with a pony tail, unbuttoned jacket, hands in pockets, pizza style beret, pants un-bloused, and ankle boots or runners where there should be combat boots. Add to that rank badges, medals, or stripes that were never earned. Seems like, too often, everyone is a sergeant.
Any one or combination of these will give a negative image to serving and retired members of the forces. The general public may or may not recognize all of them.
I have used mannequins in the past for static displays. For parades I have gone with battle dress and helmet, but normally change over to civvies for the static.
