Yesterday I had to vote on a new uniform for West Point. It's the "civilian" uniform. Usually, when I think of civilian clothes I think of the absence of uniforms. The word to me implies freedom. The uniform that the Comm had us vote on was a polo shirt, kahki pants, brown belt, and brown leather shoes. It looks very preppy. This would be what we'd be required to wear to optional dinners, the PX, the bowling alley, and basically time that we're not in the duty uniform or the seasonal uniform. General Brooks wants this because he thinks we're wearing gym-A too much. It's the most comfertable uniform and so everybody changes into it the first chance they get. If the uniform change is approved then we'd only be allowed to wear it when we're actually working out or at practice. Everyone just loves the new Comm.
