Lots of changes since I left the Army.

 

First was the embarrassing "new" emblem, that stupid kindergarten white star on the black back background.  I never served one second under that POS thing.  I wanted a new veteran's cap and couldn't find one with the "coat-of-arms" style so I found a patch and had one made.

 

Next is the dress uniforms, both blues and greens, that have nothing to recommend them, no personality at all.

 

Finally, if this cartoon is an example, they turned the enlisted stripes upside down...... again.

BTDT more times than I can count or even remotely remember. 

I can remember running behind the battery as the XO, and almost getting drunk from the fumes coming off the members of the unit.

Back in the mid 80s the Navy still allowed smoking but there was a serious campaign underway to eliminate it. Our CO was almost rabid in his dislike of smoking.  During the Command annual PT test a couple of the officers ran to the half way point of the run portion of the PT test, Stopped and smoked a cigarette, and then finished the test.

The CO was pretty hot when he found out but when they turned in a faster time than his he lost it. Heard from the andmin staff that he was cussing a blue streak.

 

He even went so far as to put out a standing order that there would be no smoking during the PT test.

Dobby is not free until his first enlistment contract expires. (Currently 8 years) Lots of individuals learned that the hard way during our foray in the sand box.
