All I know is that I hate the beret and there was a rumor that they wanted the entire Miltary to were them and Many Marines were all up in arms. Heck even when the Air Force almost went to those god awful blue cammies they were going to wear Marine Corps style covers, the octagon shaped ones. and people were up in arms. I know how uniform changes can bring about discontent. Heck I dislike the new digital cammies and those awful brown boots, now all Marines look like they are wearing pajamas. Nobody looks crisp and whatnot.

Good luck to the Units in the UK that have to make changes.
