Marines Thinking About Switching to a New Unisex Hat
ABC ^
Posted on 10/24/2013 6:39:47 PM PDT by Perdogg
The Marine Corps is contemplating a uniform change that would create a unisex service cap. The Marines are also exploring whether to have women use a slightly modified version of the hat used by male Marines instead of the distinctive bucket cap they now wear. If the unisex design is chosen it would be the first change to that part of the Marine uniform since 1922.
A Marine official says that recently the Marine Corps Uniform Board, comprised of non-commissioned officers and officers, discussed a change in the headgear known as a cover as a means of streamlining uniform rules for men and women. Since 1952 female Marines have worn distinctive service caps known as bucket cover. About 6 percent of the 195,000 Marines in active duty are women.

I wonder who's forcing the Unisex hats. Possibly a hermaphrodite?

If it were a Marine he would be refering to it as a “cover”.

No question, they are trying to drive patriots out of the armed forces.

So the FIRST point of the spear devil dogs are going to be made to wear a cover that looks like an Amtrak conductor. Oh yeah— that’s gonna work out well. Spend 8 million dollars to change a hat to make the incompetent chick troops (who cannot meet the physical standards of combat troops) feel like they are part of the REAL Corp!. Semper crap obamaumao!
Stick your nose where it isn’t needed, and make sure it comes out brown and GAY. The peter puffer in chief.

This is a lie. The president wants them to switch to a unisex cover.
To: Perdogg
Why doesn't the Obama Nightmare just issue every male service member a pair of t!ts & a vagina, and be done with it.
After all, destruction of American institutions is what the faggot Muzzie and his henchman want. The armed forces now are pro-homo, anti-Christian, pro-feminist, anti-Constitution. Heck, why not.
