    I think it's been decided now that black boots is the way to go in the UK and Germany until the proper MTP boots come in.

    Belts over smocks looks shit but it's come from the CGS so it looks like we're stuck with it for now.

    Not seen the Pic so no idea what he is wearing but if it is PCS he better be wearing black boots with it as this is the direction unless on Ops.

    Do you remember the Green Shirt we used to wear with Lightweights Trousers, if so compare that with the Lightweight Jacket we had with C95 very similar hence how we ended up tucking them in. Now compare your C95 Jacket and your PCS Jacket there are totally different and one is definitely a Jacket.

    The other Item of uniform you have been issued is a Smock.
    Yeah I remember that, and the hairy fecking hessian ones before. No need to patronise, I know its classed as a jacket.

    Thanks for answering my question, who says ARRSE is full of tossers?!

    It is not classed as a Jacket, It is actually a Jacket.

    As for ARRSE being full of tossers, I would rather be a tosser than some big head that can't accept change.

    Was that aimed at me?! How am I a big head?

    & as for accepting change, I am all for it but we look terrible in this JACKET. Tucking it in would certainly make us look better in camp whilst I appreciate that it will perform its function better on Ops outside.

    I would come back with some form of derogative comment for your last but that would just make me look like an internet hardman. Know any of them?

    Am I proving a point, or trying to prove a point?
