If they can't even do that, how will they accomplish anything of substance?

Where's Hugo Boss when you need him? Yes, Hugo Boss did have a significant involvement with Nazi-style clothing. Here's a detailed look based on historical records and public information:
- **Foundation and Early Involvement**: Hugo Ferdinand Boss founded his clothing company in 1924 in Metzingen, Germany. By 1931, two years before the Nazis came to power, Boss joined the Nazi Party. This early membership positioned him well to benefit from the Nazi regime's rise.
- **Production of Nazi Uniforms**: The Hugo Boss company began producing uniforms for various Nazi organizations, including the SA (Sturmabteilung or Brownshirts), SS (Schutzstaffel), Hitler Youth, and later the Wehrmacht (the German armed forces). While the actual design of the SS uniform was attributed to others, Hugo Boss's company manufactured these uniforms.
- **Forced Labor**: During World War II, the company utilized forced labor, including prisoners of war and individuals from concentration camps, to meet the demand for uniforms. This aspect of Hugo Boss's history has been particularly criticized due to the harsh conditions and treatment of these workers.
- **Post-War Consequences**: After the war, Hugo Ferdinand Boss was classified as an "activist, supporter, and beneficiary" of National Socialism during the denazification process. He was fined, stripped of his voting rights, and banned from running a business. However, the company continued under different management, eventually transforming into the luxury brand known today.
- **Public Acknowledgment**: In later years, the Hugo Boss company publicly acknowledged its dark history, including the use of forced labor and its association with the Nazi regime, offering apologies for these actions.
- **Current Sentiment**: Discussions on platforms like X (formerly Twitter) often highlight this history, with users expressing varied sentiments from condemnation to factual recounting of Hugo Boss's involvement with the Nazi regime.
In summary, Hugo Boss was not just a passive participant but an active contributor to the Nazi regime through the production of its uniforms, leveraging his business for profit during that era. This history has left a complex legacy for the brand, which it has had to address in its corporate narrative.

Apparently all branches as a whole have been dealing with uniform supply issues. Not just the Space Force.
On the Army side of the fence: even though ASUs are supposed to be still available as optional ceremonial/formal uniforms to wear their stock and availability in PXs is rapidly, and I do mean rapidly, declining. Last time Supply looked out for me and got me a supplemental issue the PX only had the cost and trousers in stock. No white shirts. Of course, thats partly on my unit for not biting the AGSU line and having us all switch over to wearing those (frankly the AGSUs look way better if you ask me; especially if you like the green service uniforms from the WWII era).
Navy recently had a trouser shortage. I must admit the Navy being pantsless was NOT on my 2025 Bingo card.
Marines have been having a shortage for cammies if I remember correctly. Apparently I switched from them just in time.
