every time the air force changes its uniforms it costs the poor airman a lot
of cash. Bill, NCO and enlisted get uniform allowances no? Does it not cover all your uniform needs (pays for 2 BDU when you need 3)? but if the airman wants to advance through airman of the month or below the zone boards he is going to need the newest uniforms. Hell we just went through a new uniform in the mid 90's, what more can they change. Blame it on the Marines. The USMC wanted a unique Marine uniform, within months so did the USAF. The Army will get their unique uniform cheaply as both the USAF and USMC pay for new ones and leave the Army as sole wearer of the current BDUs. I believe the USAF should have a 10 year moratorium on any changes to the current uniform. I've been on active duty for 12 years and I'm wearing (in one combination or another) my fourth service dress!

You're right, explaining any joke causes it to lose its punch, but I just didn't get it. I do now... BUFDRVR "Stay on the bomb run boys, I'm gonna get those bomb doors open if it harelips everyone on Bear Creek"
