They now look like middle-aged preppies in a Jesuit high school.
Do we get to keep the swords?
That’s a real shame. I used to love seeing Knights of Columbus in church. But I haven’t seen any in some time. And now I guess I’ll never see them again wearing those wonderful uniforms.
At least it’s not a leisure suit. Does look kitted out for a British WW2 veterans parade though.
Hmmm ... less Knights Templar, more ROTC cadet. Why not just a tuxedo t-shirt?
I couldn’t have described it better myself. How odd of them to tamper with a uniform that’s so widely recognized. If it’s merely for the sake of “modernization”, well, that’s a horrible reason.
Hey, ebb tide, a Jesuit high school with an ROTC unit looks more military than this!
Decades ago, the rank-and-file were demanding the Knights expel pro-abortion politicians. Cardinal Tauran threatened Virgil Dechant—”Don’t you dare!”
This was under JPII.
Maybe to attract younger guys?
This may be a ‘local’ option but I have no doubt that the ‘clown prince’ that calls himself Pope has a hand in this.
Maybe he should ‘tear down his wall(Where is RR when a good quote is needed?) and dismiss his Swiss Guard and any and all armed ‘protection’.
Good for the goose, good for the gander.
Always marvel at the people who stand up and say WE should turn in our arms are surrounded by armed people.
Far too many people do not see the irony in this simple gesture or better yet, the hypocrisy.

Oh well. There goes any motivation I ever had to get my 4th degree.
That’s terrible.
The army proved beyond any reasonable doubt that most people should not attempt to wear a beret.
Heck, the guy in their picture can’t even get it right
Oh, goody ... now we get to dress like military schoolboys.
That’s too bad. The old ones were very cool.
Sad. They already ruined the exemplifications so I’m not surprised. I heard there is a move afoot to get rid of the ceremonies altogether and just have an online membership form, sort of like joining the Auto Club. Sign the paper, pay your dues and you’re in. And the downward spiral of Western Culture continues.
