He's wearing a hat and jacket with touristy sewed on patches for the carrier on which he made the speech.

They were probably presented to him by the crew.

No problem with it. Clearly, I don't think he was prepared to wear it as he has his tie on underneath and suit pants on.

I never brought up Bill, but yeah, he was a DD as well. So was GWB.

Political connections, educational/National Guard deferments, or "bone spurs".

They are one in the same, and as a son of a Vietnam Vet, and a veteran myself they can all suck it, and stay the hell away from my Aircraft Carriers unless they help with colors, sweepers, and GQ.

And Alpha Working Party to boot.

Looks like Commander in Chief gear to me.

President Trump looks great wearing that hat and jacket.

...as well as the comparison/difference for those with vs without military experience.


I see no need to compare the difference between a POTUS who has military service wearing the hat and jacket versus a POTUS who doesn't have military service wearing the hat and jacket.

Sorry if already posted, but I think the apparel is given to them by the unit they are visiting with as a gift. It would probably be disrespectful not to wear it while speaking with them. Now if he starts rocking military garb erre day, that would be completely inappropriate and frankly I'd be worried.

He's giving a speech, not playing outfield in Arizona.

Look, I'm not saying he needs to push it back to Gomer Pyle levels, but Jesus. That thing is damn near sitting on his fricking eyebrows.




The following is a summary of the policy specifics taken from Army Regulation 670-1 and a list of reminders and tips for wear:

1. Place the cap on your head so that the seam in the front of the cap is centered with the bridge of your nose. The ends of the brim should be touching the top of your temples. No hair should be visible from the forehead. Rank insignia is always centered on this front seam.

2. Adjust the cap so that the band of the cap is wrapped around the largest part of your head and is parallel to the ground. A good trick to use is to place your index and middle fingers together and place them horizontally on top of the point where the top of the ear connects to your head. The brim should be just touching the top edge of your middle finger and level with the ground.

3. Smooth out any parts of the cap that are sagging on your head. The cap should have clean crisp angles. If worn correctly, the top of the cap should be at a slight forward angle.
