Dangit, SSG Robert Burns! You're tempting me to violate one of my fundamental rules: Don't stand next to or share a foxhole with somebody who keeps getting shot at.

HQ's, Staff Elements, Pentagon, YES! Line units no. But they should be worn at least once a month regardless of where you work.

It would definitely give a nod to the past routines of the Army. I think it might raise discipline. All for it.

I would include school houses (unless training dictates otherwise); recruiting stations; hospitals (clerical staff);

I completely agree. If not for everyday duty, can we please stop allowing Soldiers to attend public functions in ACU's?

It all comes down to the job...and...how much of a public image units want to maintain.
Back in the mid 70's I was with American Forces Network Europe and don't recall wearing 'fatigues' except for once-a-year visits to the range. It was A's or B's every day unless you were in engineering.

understand that the ACU's are a ugly uniform,maybe go back to the old fatigues we wore and we tucked our shirts in,had made you work on height and weight standards better,and also you do not know when the balloon is gonna go up and poof your on alert,back in the day we had keep LBE gear with us ,I was in medical and hated whites and anything to do with class A or b in a medical setting,iruined more dress uniforms than i did fatigues and BDU's,I am for a better appearances in uniform.

I was a military dependent, and now work in the Civilian Govt Sector. Our Uniformed Staff must wear a Dress Uniform (Class B) when in view of the public. They can wear the ACUs (Utility) when working other assignments. The Class B uniform to me is what I would expect to see for public interaction.
