Mabe we can blame Bill Clinton. Wasn't he the one who authorized berets for everyone, instead of berets being reserved for elite military teams?

I believe that was the work of Shinseki, an affirmative action hire of Clinton. Someone please correct me if I am wrong.

Back in the 50’s and 60’s when my career Army Airborne dad was serving, the only people who wore berets were Special Forces, a very elite and small group of our military. They weren’t even called “green berets” then which I think is a stupid name. Special Forces is better.
