http://Military.com story on female soldiers uniforms availability and reducing uniform allowances
Female summer uniforms are in high demand due to a contract dispute with the supplier. There are numerous suppliers for uniforms for men's clothing. I am sure it would not be to difficult to have another supplier take over the contract. It also mentions that the woman's clothing allowance is being cut back. Think back to last year where the Military said that the woman's allowance was insufficient to cover the cost of maintaining uniforms and the female items they need to purchase.
