Is the Navy trying to look more professional by adopting a USAF look?

Chief Jim,
YGTBSM! What is that kind of uniform? Will this replace the Crackerjack? I know
that most of the blue Jackets that were in my squadron liked the crackerjack.
It set them apart, They wanted a easy to maintain working uniform but the dress
uniform. You didn't have to guess what service they were in.
Sad sad day

Geez, That PO3 (SW) looked like a Marine at first glance.

Why does *everyone* have to keep screwing with the uniforms? Maybe the same
reason a dog licks his ass- because he can?

shaking my head in amazement

I thought it was bad under Zumwalt- This is ridiculous!

A dog licks his balls because he can, not his ass...he licks his ass
cause he likes the taste of crap.

Hey, current and former Zoomies managed to mock the proposed *blue* BDUs
enough that the Air Force gave up on that idiocy. Maybe that means there's
still a chance for you guys to stop khakis for everyone?

Now y'all know how I felt in my USAF career. I really got ****ed when
the brass deep-sixed the Steve Canyon trenchcoat for yet another
version of a blue wool blanket. That good old trenchcoat is still
giving good service here in Colorado winters.
