the beret is out and the cap is back
IIRC, ten years ago, the original order for the berets went to a Chinese manufacturing company. I believe it was public outcry that forced the DoD(?) to switch it to the US.
I also don't recall who specifically placed the original order, but it just goes to show what feckin' morons we have in the 'gubmint (and they want to run my healthcare?!?).

IIRC, ten years ago, the original order for the berets went to a Chinese manufacturing company. That's not near as bad as "outsourcing" air to air missiles from the PLA.
There were rumors...
