New Working Uniforms

Stop making these items "organizational clothing," dammit! Shipboard SUPPOs get all stupid when it comes to organizational clothing and start being very stingy with issuing them and then demanding that they get them back. All that does is hurt the blue jackets and waster supply money on uniforms instead of repair parts. Just give everyone a damn uniform allowance and let us buy them in the NEX. Why does task force uniform keep fucking this up?

I'd rather deal with a random bad SUPPO than have to shell out another $300 for a new, new uniform. I've been wearing Type IIIs for less than a year!
That's all you had to say.
The problem is that I like this uniform. It makes good sense and we should be allowed to wear it out in town. You airdales get your flame retardant pajamas and we get ours. I just don't want to have to deal with supply chain issues that will inevitably arise. Luckily, I'm shoreside for the rest of my career so maybe I can survive without ever having to wear these.

Why must they be like the Army and put the American flag on the 'wrong' side?!
Same for the rank in the center of the chest IMO.Why must they be like the Army and put the American flag on the 'wrong' side?!
In all seriousness, is the ODU sufficiently fire retardant?
If so, all the more reason why Task Force Uniform has been worthless.
Given the near-perfect record that
Maybe they'll be see-through when they get wet, like the original minion costume PT gear. Maybe the buttons will fall off like the first batches of
