The Navy has always had the dumbest uniforms ever.

They give them different uniforms so you won’t
mistake them for Marines. You’d think they
would be easy to spot with that MOP in their
hand...

The ol poopie suit was the best ever.
No one cares what you look like 1000 feet below water.

.....and that's just in the last decade. Dungarees, replaced by working blues, replaced by the digital monstrosity. Then black garrison caps came out with one of those uniforms, the troops looked like they joined the SS. My second most despised uniform besides the digi camo is the khaki over black trou. Pull out those black pisscutters again and we are back to looking like the third Reich.

Don't even get me started on the "global force for good" slogan. I guess we wanted to take the heat off the Army for the "Army of One."

The dress blues were/are very well liked by the ladies.

I loved my dungarees, not sure why they would be dumb, bellbottoms made it so they could be removed without taking boots off, wore well and were comfortable, especially after a few washings in salt water. they may have looked a bit dated, but they are much better than the McDonalds uniforms after them and way better than the blue digital “cammies.” And with the exception of the Marine Corps Blood Stripes, the cracker jacks are the most iconic uniform and best looking uniform in the military.

you know why they have 13 buttons on the front right? 13 chances for her to say yes, you know what the draw string on the back is for? in case she says yes before 13!
