"I wonder who, at what peculiar point in history, ever considered those outfits to have any relationship to a sensible military uniform."

The Turks and the Germans wondered the same thing as the Evzones slit their throats. I understand the Germans on the Western Front wonder the same thing about the Ladies from Hell, right s!

What counts, TC, is killing the other side until they get sick of dying. The cut of a soldier's uniform, especially ones like these, only adds a certain piquancy to the killing process!

Maybe they pulled the sheets off the clotheslines on their way to the war and had to make them into *something*.

And I thought the Turks were fierce. Shows what I know. Maybe I need to study Greek history.
