I know that. But if she showed up in some gay outfit the school would have gone all blubbery over it.

You don’t ever have to ask to be excused for anything, far as I’m concerned.
You are a great reminder of what this country was, what you fought for.
Thank you.
To: PLMerite
Probably a good thing that it’s part of the “Dress” uniform, and not the BDU.
To: PLMerite
Shoot off a Marine's cover and you'll have to deal with one pissed off Marine.
Not something I'd recommend.

Yup. . in the meantime, it should be easy to write the dress-code for graduation to allow service uniforms to be worm.
Our local HS has such an allowance.

Somehow, “too covery” didn’t have the punch. ‘>)

I am also a retired USMC officer and I completely agree with you. There’s a time and place for dress blues and a time and place for the cap and gown. She isn’t entitled to special treatment.

Noting gives away your position like a white hat that sticks up four inches above your head. Aren't they awful? I''m glad I retired before they decided to make the female uniforms more butch.

Maybe he should declare himself a girl and ask to wear a dress. I bet they’d allow that.

Oops. What I meant to say was SHE should declare herself a GUY and demand to wear a SUIT. Yeah, that’s it.

I agree with you. If I were her commander, I’d chew her ass out for being a little jerk for trying to make her high school look bad, for trying to make herself the center of attention, and for besmirching the name of the Corps.
It doesn’t hurt her to wear her uniform under her cap and gown.
And it is NOT a surprise to anyone in the world that the graduation dress is ‘cap and gown’.

My sister completed high school one semester early (December 1971), and was not allowed to participate in her class’ graduation. Peoria, IL.
