Very nice uniform!

The only thing that constantly winds me up, is the insistence on wearing of the God-awful, American "Baseball Caps"...(together with "shades"?), to make them look like Americans?

There has to be another type of head gear that doesn't associate, and mimic, the wearer with "North America"!

We will be having the; "Hi Guys", "yo-all", "Gimme five", "Awesome", etc..etc....next!...

...!

Paul...an English Chap, with a Flat Cap...

...!

Be thankful the peak is facing forwards. But I can't see the point of blue DPMs unless it's something to do with Avatar.

Ah...just like the US Navy work uniforms (except these seem to have a bit more white on them).

I know the US ones are basically designed to be beaten up, stained, etc, as the pattern is mainly designed to be more comfortable and durable than previous US Navy work uniforms, while vastly reducing the notability of stains from oils and paints while working on ships.
