Very well Said, Sir!!!

I keep looking at that picture and wondering if a panel of senior Army officers and NCOs didn't have a hand in deciding the design of those ugly-assed uniforms.

That would explain the ugly-a$$ Ice-cream Man suit i just spent $75 to tailor. Apparently, the new blue uniform was just practice. Sheesh.

Why does it seem that the French might have designed those uniforms.They'd look great on them.

The picture above is fairly small leaving out some of the detail. The uniforms have the oversized Ralph Lauren polo logo on the blazers. Seems over the top to me.

The pic is of the USA Olympic Team entering the stadium in Beijing at the opening ceremonies of the last Olympics. :rolleyes:

Personally, I think it's a nice, traditional looking olympic team uniform similar to what has been worn by many teams for decades.

As far as crises go - meh...

And so it goes...

MRFL pointed out that it IS after Memorial Day and before Labor Day. And white goes with everything.

Then she laughed at my new blue uniform. Especially the "strip-ed-ie" pants.

What teams (high school, college, pro, etc) haven't been wearing uniforms with the manufacturer's logo prominently on them for the past 20 years? Even very traditional Notre Dame, has them on their uniforms.

It looks like a group of Payne Stewert impersonators!

Like the 2012's those 2008 uniforms also had the Ralph Lauren Polo logo on them.

Don't hold your breathe. With luck I'll have to wear it twice.
What I really hate about it is you don't wear green tabs on them. I sewed them on my greens and the old field jackets.
