New test Navy Uniforms are WWII Throwbacks
Think of it this way (at least this is how I do it). Olden days - Everyday combat uniform worn is heavy, wool and dressy (Red Coat, Marine Blues, Cracker Jacks etc.) Then, as the benefits of new fabrics, tactics and camoflage (Khaki / olive twill trousers and blouses and jackets) become... -

Trench Coat - the 'Ultimate' Thread!
Also, if the first experience with the trench was wear as an issue item in the service, where typically all buttons/snaps/zippers etc. must be fastened if a garment is worn per regulations, the first thing I'm going to do when I'm out is NOT fasten it the way I HAD to for those years.

Aglets and you
My favorite Franklin Mint statue shows a bald aglet in flight with one perfect tear in its eye, wolves carrying American flags in their mouths running below, all superimposed on a cut glass etching of the WTC with gold inlay spelling out "Never Forget".- carebear

That cotton tape looks an awful lot like the bandage material used for boxing wraps. It looks good and could help with a wound in the field. Double Bonus Adventure Points!- carebear

The Adventurer's Gear Thread
Good eye on the ammo, Matt. A great book on an early 20th Century adventurer (and machine-gunner) who left his US state militia unit to join the Canadian Army (to get into the war sooner, don't you know :eusa_doh: ). "A Rifleman Went To War" - Capt. H.W. McBride If you are interested...- carebear

New test Navy Uniforms are WWII Throwbacks
All they need to do is allow tailoring and the folks who care will have it done, just like now. I paid the extra bucks for the higher-end dress shirts for my Alphas. If I had known better and had more than a Sgt's pay I would have bought all my dress uniforms custom.
