You're getting out before the wear-out date. Why spend money on uniforms?

I already have them from Afghanistan. Actually, my ACUs are falling apart so it'll save me from having to buy new ones.

e: Only issue I can see is that our unit patch isn't available in OCP yet. Oh well, I'll mix and match per the SMA's guidance.
e2: Apparently the ALARACT specifies that patches must match the uniform color. Gay.

I, on the other hand, have matching everything....

But I'm just a lonely E4, and I'm getting pinned next month. Wonder if they'll troll me by holding off on that because the patch don't match.

As of tomorrow there's no commander's discretion. OCP is the Army uniform.

That's an entirely illogical chestnut. Besides, when has anyone ever been issued Multicam that wasn't flame retardant?

“We don’t really know where this goes — and I’m not sure we really care.”
Will be interesting to see if anyone has the new uniform next week when I sign back in at ABOLC.

Of course Ranger Joes and Commandos has been selling multicam for a long time but I think the new uniform is slightly different somehow, ie there's a zipper on the side for the shoulder pockets instead of a Velcro flap, etc.

Only reason I want them is they actually look functional unlike ACUs, just wish I could have gotten my supplementary issue of uniforms after the new uniform was released.

I mean he's still wrong, but obviously you're not going to win that fight.

I'm going to address any complaints from any SNCOs by pointing out that they're also in the incorrect uniform and that I have 4 months left so they can suck my dick from the back. Perks of being an officer, I guess.

Tell me you're in 6-52. Please God, tell me you're stuck in the festering Mickey Mouse rear end in a top hat of Korea that is Suwon.

I wish I could go back in time; superglue giant veiny green dicks covering those loving asinine floor to ceiling glass doors separating command group from the rest of battalion, a true to life sized horse dick rattlecan'd that lovely "silver" and stuck to the gay-rear end rearing IRON HORSE statue out front, and make sure to burn that loving aid station to the goddamn foundation.

gently caress it, today marks one month AD (After DD-214).

If Suwon is Mickey Mouse's rear end in a top hat, than Camp Casey is Satan's rear end in a top hat after it got hosed by 6 Mandingos.

If your units anything like mine, you're still going to get out late as gently caress for ~reasons~.
