Just goes to show that once the USMC makes a move, all the other services follow....

the air force did the same thing

Chris,

Of all the services I have the least beef with the USCG. Train 10% of the time and execute 90% of the time, unlike the others which train 90% of the time and excute 10% of the time.

Actually, one April fools Day I submitted the proper forms for implementing equipment or procedure changes that rewarded the recipient with a cash bonus. It was during the transition from the old crackerjack uniform to the present busdriver's outfit. My C/O thought the Jimmy Buffet straw hat, Beach Boy hawaiian shirt and baggies were a bit much. He did forward it to Washington <img src="/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />
