You've been to military balls. Like me, you've seen a wide variety of ball gowns. What is an appropriate ball gown? What is not? Can you give or show example?

There is a time and place for everything, a formal Military Ball is probably not the time nor the place for that dress. Different venue, different group, Hell go for it. I like it to going to a nude beach; if everyone is nude than it is not that big a deal, its expected, but if you are the only one nude, there lies your problem.

Was this in a foreign country? Perhaps this was a shock and awe tactic. Appropriate clothing concerns have come up a few times at military functions ball, dining out, etc that I have attended over the years. The standards of good taste still ring true. Best guidance I ever heard when it comes to "is this clothing appropriate?"---is "if you have to ask don't wear it!"
