>>> and now can the Navy get rid of the Village people cracker jack outfit..

Admiral Zumwalt back in the early 70s did that one already. As soon as he was replaced as CNO they were brought back, to the general relief of the Navy. From what I read, Mrs Zumwalt motivated this. She didn’t like the traditional sailor uniform.

I doubt they are in a hurry to repeat that fiasco.
