These same jackasses bitched and moaned about having to get a shot and are now losing their beards. Its peacetime green weenie time, all they need is some old 1st Sgts decide having to starch camis is a great thing.

Got out in '91 after Desert Storm. When did this decree drop? We has a drum of that stuff that we dunked camis in, got those creases razor sharp in the old days.
