This uniform was called pinks and greens in the 1950s when it was first worn. It has nothing to do with the homosexuals controlling the military now, although they likely have no complaints.

“This uniform was called pinks and greens in the 1950s when it was first worn”.

The pinks and greens go back before the 1950’s. They were very popular during WW II.
