I was in the Army and I hated most aspects of it. But one thing I really liked was the uniform. Just waking up and putting on the BDUs and not having to think about what to wear was great. Also, it eliminates comparison between others. You don’t have to worry if you’re under-dressed or over-dressed cause you are wearing the same thing as everyone else.

It worked in Star Trek, right? Well, unless you were a redshirt.

    I’m currently in the Army. I generally choose to wear my uniform even on occasions where we are able to wear civilians for the same reasons you mentioned. Life is much simpler that way.
