Rock on.
Waist belt? IKE jacket? Looking like the greatest generation does not make you one. But its a nice tribute.
I would like to see a return of the From Here to Eternity summer khakis. Always thought they were a really sharp looking uniform.
Will this reduce the numbers of pregnancies?
How about getting back to awards, ribbons, and insignia that matter.
Everyone in the military looks like they won the war all by themselves they are so decorated.
I have to admit, when I read the title about “Pinks” and uniforms for army soldiers, I thought this would be something else entirely.
I liked the Army uniforms in the movie “From Here to Eternity.” I loved those campaign hats.
In prep for drafting women...
oh, and all those uncertain folks.....
Okay... was worried, there. I like ‘em. Don’t know what they have to do with pink. They look sharp.
I figured “pinks” would be for the queers...
According to the article, it will be a working uniform to be worn in office operations only. It is not a combat uniform or an obtional obviously. So why the expense? The original for this is at government expense with the follow on for the replacement parts covered by individual clothing allowance unless damaged by work related incidents. It is going to increase the requirement for clothing allowance for the members as they add new uniforms.
They will probably phase out one of the working uniforms shortly. Member won’t be able to keep this uniform on hold when they don’t wear it as it is for a defined location use and many spend their career never working in that atmosphere. Not a good idea.

I hope they get rid of those “girley” berets. Makes our warriors look like night guards in a cat house.
Regarding the pinks and greens, my point of reference is only from watching old WW2 movies and for some reason (maybe bad color reproduction ability on old TVs) they always looked like dark brown jackets with khaki pants to me. Always thought it looked really good. Then I saw a real uniform and was like 'whoa, why are the pants pink? And the jacket is sort of a faded green, this looks terrible!' I've since gotten used to it but I sort of miss the Brown and Khaki uniform that only existed in my poorly calibrated eyes.
Now do away with those goofy berets. We ain’t French.
To look like soldiers, bring back the garrison caps with piping that indicates specialty.
Best looking uniforms were the Krauts in WWII
Especially the officers
I have always felt that pinks were the proper uniform.
Now we need to get my Air Force to get back into a uniform that doesn’t look like a bus driver or doorman.
