I know there are full time Guard and Reserve. I guess the rules have changed if you can go to the store and school.

What is the acronym ACU? It was BDU’s back in the day.

Battle Dress Uniform has been supplanted, with the Army Combat Uniform.
Class A’s replaced with Army Service Uniform.
And there is no “office” version of it like they had with the “Class B” uniform.
So brass end up wearing the same uniform as the enlisted while at work in the office.

I for one, miss my dungarees and boondockers in the Navy. I remember we weren't allowed to wear them anywhere off-base or outside of work (of course, they wouldn't have been much for picking up women anyway).

They don't even have to iron these new things before they go to work!
