I think i would try to re- enlist just to wear the uniform... but Im almost as old as Carl... , and I dont bounce like the younger days. And the belly wouldnt fit in the blues... but its a fun thought!!

Those are definitely some compelling looks.

In a way, I'm surprised that the forms are still in use; however, militaries tend to be more traditional than most civil settings -- which would, sadly, work against a male donning a skirted uniform as it would likely break any number of rules, restrictions, and edicts.

I was especially taken by the very long and formal officers' skirted version -- a truly sharp-looking garment!

They seem happy enough to don a kilt, the west is so backwards
