Kathryn Bigelow wasn't thanking the crew in that quote for her Best Director acceptance speech. She was referring to heroic uniformed service workers. The complete quote is: "To the men and women all over the world who, sorry to reiterate, wear a uniform, but even not just the military. Hazmat, emergency, firemen, they're there for us and we're there for them."
