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 also miss my uniform. But i miss the ACU, not BDUs. Too much starching, ironing, and boot polishing for the BDU. When we switched to the CCU and then the ACU i was so happy because it was like wearing pajamas all day every day and you also didnt have to shine your boots anymore.
Fuckin Americans with your uniforms that you don’t have to fight with every goddamn day
