No more beret, a perfect birthday gift for the Army

Berets are gone with ACUs. I've always hated it, but I've also managed to go three years without wearing mine. We wear PCs at training anyways since we spend very little time in garrison. It was great to read the report last night though, considering I am at a two week course where we have to wear it everyday. One less item for the packing list and now my right cargo pocket will be empty of a hat I never wear.

The velcro patches are largely irrelevant to me considering in a few months I'll be overseas wearing Multicam without any nametapes or patches anyways.

Good changes that have been a long time coming.

  1. Getting rid of berets, good news for you guys in the army! There's talk of you switching form the Mulit-cam to the Marine's Marpat...the Marines are fighting it. So we'll see how many times the army changes uniforms in the next few years!
