I betcha that if anyone on this forum posted that the Navy white bell bottoms with the bib fronts and the white blouse and neckerchief make sailors look like a bunch of homos they would be banned.
Nah. Mostly because they'd be mostly right. I never liked the white Cracker Jack uniform. The version of it at USNA (White Works Delta, IIRC, back in my day, and assuming it's still in use) was just as bad.
The enlisted dress blue Cracker Jack, however, can be VERY sharp when properly worn, and it at least it has some long and honorable tradition behind it, unlike most of the crap being foisted on the troops by the Pentagon these days.
It is tradtion, PARATROOPERS are authorized to wear the black combat boots with their ASU's.
Still looks like garbage, IMO.
Bloused boots may work on the old Class A's, but it doesn't fly in a DRESS uniform any more than sneakers go with a tuxedo when the wearer has won the Gold Medal for the marathon at the Olympics.
