I'm guessing that you're glad you're retired?I think a gray shirt with a refelctive N or Navy, similar to the Army PT t-shirt, would have looked better than honey bee yellow.

Since you're new to the game, I'll bring you up to speed.i swear, my neighbor, he pain in my assholes. I get new clock radio, he get new clock radio, I get new pt uniform,
he get new pt uniform.
He get yellow. Everyone know it for girls. Success!
There are the operable terms. I've seen Chiefs WALKING the PRT with a coffee cup in one hand, and a cigarette in the other... We can call your PT gear gay because we actually use it for "PT". Now, if you were to call it "leisure wear", then you're right - we have no leg to stand on.Since you're new to the game, I'll bring you up to speed.
The USMC, the service that has been running around in little green nut-huggers for the past umpteen years, does not get to call anyone else's PT gear gay. That would be like accusing the rest of us of having unfashionably short hair or too large a collection of polo shirts and jean shorts.
Carry on, smartly.
Why can't we just do the alternate uniform for the Army/Air Force -- black shorts and brown t-shirts. A lot cheaper and we didn't need to have a bunch of idiots locked into a room in DC trying to find a way to waste money.
The root of the problem is that the Navy does not have a culture of fitness, we have a culture of drinking.
The simple fact is that fitness is not a priority for the Navy. We do not fund the facilities like the Marines do, and we do not properly educate our sailors on nutrition and fitness. We give a PRT twice a year. As long as you pass it, that's pretty much it.

I agree fully. They didn't even change fabrics or cut or anything. I'm all for not fixing what's not broke, but I am for seeing some breakthroughs that reflect the amount of time and money spent in research.Why can't we just do the alternate uniform for the Army/Air Force -- black shorts and brown t-shirts.

Fixed it for a you.I'm not at all cynical that the Navy will someday have their culture of fitness, but at this rate, I'll be a retired general before it happens.
