the thing that kills me is the Army went and designed the uniform... then PICKED who made them... USMC did the same... judging by the Navy guy I saw... they also went this route...

Air Force... designed 20 different uniforms... tested them... then went with the cheapest to make... which also happened to be the heaviest and worst wearing one... Huah Air Force!

As ghey as it will be wearing blue camouflage, I can't wait to be done with dungarees. Those things are the most worthless "utility" uniform known to man.

At least you don't have to blouse the pants. The hats are fucktarded though, and why do you tuck them in your ass? Seriously, you put it on your head, the brim is right over your nose and you smell ass all the time. If it's chili day at the chow hall I'd go through a new hat every time I went outside.

Stop blowing out the back of your britches and you wouldn't have that problem, Rambo.

You'd have to ask a Great Lakes sailor for that one. I don't tuck my cover anywhere; the benefits of an MCRD education.

Our new blue cammies will have 8 points too. Fuck command ball caps. Of course, most sailors will wear their 8 points like fucking truckers.

Ever since the Army did away with jungle fatigues, these shits just get worse and worse. The BDUs were fairly durable but uncomfortable as fuck. The summer BDUs looked like they were made from the same rip-stop cottons as jungle fatigues but frayed just from washing. And now these ACU or whatever the fuck they call'em are doing the same shits.

Bring back the fucking khakis.
