I would sure like to see the Navy go back to denim... dungaree working uniforms for First Class and below. (Have a pair of surplus Seafarers that Jessica found and got for my birthday a couple of years ago.!) Dave
Mike saved like 6 pairs of his when he left in '07. He had some coveralls too. The dungarees last forever it seems. I think we still have a pair or two left.
Think I saved some of mine as well... but over the years they have vanished. When I was in we went through a period of them trying to get rid of them... going to what they called utilities, basically akin to working uniforms for janitors, gas station attendants, etc. Dark blue trousers and a medium blue shirt or utility jumper. first ones were pull over, like a long sleeved polo shirt. "Crows" were in color but did not have specialty mark. Regular dungarees remained optional and after a while became uniform again. Dave P.S. It was around the same time that they took us out of the "crackerjack" dress uniforms and put everyone into the officer/chief style suit and tie. that didn't last either.
