As a former Navy Chief I must say that is the gayest cover Ive ever seen. Marines please dont let them do this to you. |

I saw a pic of a WW I Non-Com shooting pistol practice in France. He had the front portion of the brim of his campaign hat tightly rolled up and back; looked almost like a curling wave. It looked a bit stupid until you could see how modding the front brim let him get a good sight picture on his 1911. |

LOL, another tool to bash Marines with That's the dumbest looking headgear I've ever seen. Did they actually pay some pogue to think of this shit? Need a real Marine to stomp a mid hole in his ass. That or suffer the never ending laughter of the Army. View Quote Oh I so hope this is true |

Excellent, unisex covers for the integrated Marine Corps.
You just know there is some general officer sitting somewhere that believes, "The By God Ranks Will Look Uniform", and since women look stupid in a wheel hat, guess who gets to wear female garb ... Question, I'm not going to google the answer - Do USMC uniforms use different buckles on NCO and non-NCO belts? |

Thanks, that's kind of cool.
My class A uniform was that lovely USAF blue suit. Fortunately I didn't have to buy more than the first issue. |

All US military uniforms not worn while actually shooting at people should be reverted to 1944 standards. The late 1890s is really what the Army reverted to - but replacing the khakis with ACUs. Makes sense, as the whole point of going to Khaki was for concealment - they were fuield uniforms. Blue remained as the dress uniform. The idea works in principle, but the execution has been sorely lacking. The Prussian helmets are stupid, I would prefer the campaign hats or the current hats. The Cavalry Stetson would work, though. The rosy-cheeked light-in-the-loafers guy on the left kinda looks like the lesbian Marine in the OP. |

Did the Army design that? It seems that everything the Army designs turns out to shit. This is coming from a 12-year Army vet.
