Change the uniforms again? Jesus X Christ! What's wrong with these
guys' brains? They get up to CoS and all of sudden they think - "Hey,
it's time to change the uniform!" I forget the name of the jerk who

"Hire somebody, fire somebody and paint the lobby."
Was the advice I heard for taking an upper management job.
Since the entire Air Force can't see you changed the color
of the lobby they think they need to change the uniform
to prove they're in charge.
sigh professional managers sigh

deep-sixed the trench coat - but I still have mine and I wear it when
it gets cold here in CO. Very nifty coat, too. The only decent move
these perfumed princes (thanks, Hack!) ever made in the uni bit was to
go to wash and wears. But then I mostly wore flying suits anyway. The
Nomex bag wasn't so bad after it had been through the washing machine
a dozen or so times. A real sweat hog when brand new, though.

I know the word for our Nomex racing suits was to never wash them:
the fire proofing washed out. Was the fire proofing the thing that
accounted for the "sweat hog" effect ya' think?

BTW what is the uniform allowance now - still 2 bucks a month?
