And here it is...
The gay uniforms are right around the corner too.
Having seen various uniform boards come and go...the truth is that the old guard of each service...run the board (not political figures or the President). Unless you can get a four-star to come out and demand a change...the old guard on the board keep things generally moving forward...changing little unless necessary.
For those remember the Air Force period of the early 1990s....the Generals got into the mess...demanded a dozen major changes, and almost all were undone within three years.
I could bring up the Air Force ‘ice cream’ suit for field-grade officers. My boss at the time had 27 years in and wanted a parade at the unit for his retirement. The wing commander agreed, but stipulated sixty days before the event....that this retiring Colonel had to buy the ice cream suit as part of the parade deal. As I remember it...total cost for shoes, hat and suit came just over $1,000...and the Colonel never wore it again.
So the Obama imposed depression is putting 'em out of business.
I wonder if the new Obama available unisex covers will be pink?
As a four star Marine general I bet it is the most miserable experience on this planet to receive a call from el Douche Bag and be dressed down or even worse one of his underlings like Carney or Jarrett.
So, basically they are saying the reports of DOD preparing to force the “Girly Hat” on male Marines is true.
They just deny the part about Teflon Obama giving the direct order.
“In an email, Marine Corps officials said there is no truth to reports that President Obama is behind the potential change.”
Sure, whatever you say...
Who appointed Amos to the position of Commandant of The United States Marine Corps?
And here it is...
Ever since the Sink Emperor inflicted 4 million made in China “Monica” berets on the US Army......it pays to be vigilant.
I thought Sgt. Maj. Daly was persona non grata to the leftist commies because he killed Chinese and Haitians.
no truth “obama is involved” not the underlying story?
since when does obama have ANY credibility?
I vote to keep the old style cover.
“Obama didn’t tell us to do anything’”
Uhhh...
“The Marine Corps also has been asked by the DoD to find a unisex option for a dress and service cover, Marines said.”
Who runs the DoD again? Who appointed the head of the DoD again?
“Obama ordered us to say Obama didn’t tell us to do anything”
“The president in no way, shape or form directed the Marine Corps to change our uniform cover,”
Operable word: “DIRECTED”
A word to the wise is sufficient. At this point Obama’s position is “evolving” as it did with same sex marriage.
Seriously, the reaction must have been horrific as far as the powers that be are concerned.
What about the propaganda picture showing a male marine wearing one also?
Nothing mentioned about Mooshell making the call. “Listen General we both know who you work for. He and I both want to see you make it to the end of your career in one piece. It would be a shame if one morning the police found a little coke in your car on the way to work...and I don’t mean a soft drink.”
Why the hell should we believe a GOVERNMENT newspaper that believes what a GOVERNMENT entity (Marine Corps) says about their GOVERNMENT boss. The Stars & Stripes has always been a “Whoever’s In Charge” lapdog and this is just another example of that!
That sounds phony on the face of it. What stops them from handing the same specs to an alternate manufacturer?
In fact, it is phony.
Another Obamacare shut down???
