The Navy with “cammo” is about the damned stupidest thing I have ever heard of.

Granted, if you were a sailor on a ship sunk in enemy waters, and your enemy happened to be the Japanese who were looking to kill you as you treaded water, that might be the only utility I could see.

Otherwise, what a joke. It is downright embarrassing.

They wouldn’t wear these at sea. At sea you wear “coveralls”. They wear this crap in-port. They will wear these top-side on a submarine entering and exiting port. However, if you were manning the rails, you would wear the dress uniform of the day.
