    The Navy needs to bring back the Dixie cup, bell bottoms with the ass pockets in front and the old jackets. The new uniforms are horrible.

    If they want unisex, which I support, they should just get rid of the "female" version and go with what's been thought of as the male version. I'd also support getting rid of skirts, and the scarf things in lieu of actual ties.

    I love how some people are so gullible they think the President has anything to do with uniform decisions.

    Not to mention that they are flammable and can melt to your skin...and the real irony is that the Aquaflauge as it's called get bloused so save time on folding the pant bottoms into the boot during a fire!:soma:

    So, a bunch of pussy ass conservative cowards have wasted government money and the Marines' time and effort by forcing the yanking of a survey for no good reason. There was never any intent to make any significant change to the male dress cover--only to adapt it for unisex use--and the only directive from above was to come up with a unisex option. The whole point of the survey was to show that keeping the current male dress cover as a unisex option had overwhelming support.

    This should surprise absolutely no one.

    You stated:

    I've already provided one example of where a president had direct input on a uniform decision. You never specified that it was Obama. So yeah about that.

    Oh and why would the Commandant, who is a traditionalist, want to change 100 years of tradition when he has fought every other uniform change?

    No swerve here, just the same position the whole time. One which you seem to have a hard time following which is weird as it is so simple. I guess the subject is just a difficult one for you though; having to admit you were wrong when you tried to blame Obama.

    I remember going through my first uniform issue, and asking the guy "what the fuck are these?" when I got the pants. Never had the aquaflage, got out before that....in the lamest way possible. :lol:

    Hence intermission time.

    Between the new site being ass for loading in my antiquated backup system with a constant badgering for upgrading my browser and the tools that have returned it all combinds to suck the joy right the fuck out of life.

    Fuck that. Enough is enough. :shrug:

    Same old song and dance. You and Frontline call me nasty names, I respond why (as usual) the two of you are full of shit, and then your response is "Dur! I was just joking!" Reread what both of you wrote because it sure as shit sounds like you two were serious to me and instead this is just you attempting to use VisionCastle's old "I was just trolling" excuse to get out of admitting you were wrong.

    Sure you are. You waited almost two weeks to start posting after you made the name change request, and you made the name change request while the activity levels in the Help forum were off the charts.

    So you're admitting that you're a dual and you're really Garamet? Because I didn't respond to you until I said it was a not serious thread. And it should be obvious it's not a serious thread. You have to be pretty damn stupid to read the opening post and conclude it's serious. Then again you leftists have warped senses of humor. Anything that looks like it might criticize leftism philosophy or your messiah Obama is automatically attacked.

    Really? That's just a stupid excuse to cover up the fact that you're lazy.

    As soon as I saw the Dinner account and the post numbers and join date I went and looked it up in the Help Desk to be sure. It's a sticky thread and there is no way the activity levels of the Help forum would prevent you from checking it out as well.

    You're an idiot. I started reposting and then did the name change request a day later. If you don't believe me ask Gul.

    Obama is hardly my messiah. Hell, I've been a huge critic of him being a centrist and not a liberal.
