Good for you. The scale changed in November. Note that I said "now." And hey, any clothing stores whose hard copy of the message ammending the scale 'is lost' in somebodies in/out box somewhere is probably still issuing 2 pair...until the message finally makes it to them.atticus said:Everybody in my platoon and I were all issued two pairs of ankle boots back in Sept.
Wonderful...I must pass it up my Chain of Command that I must now officially considered 'dead.' I guess we were all out of dress at our last Mess Dinner...despite the Dress Regs... :atticus said:We were also told that the only time that you really wear the oxfords is when you dead, or taking part in a funeral.
