Well, it does a
little good. The Navy has good chow, and they have those stupid Donald Duck outfits that make us look even better by comparison. Still, I'd rather be under the command of the Army. You guys have tons of cool and useful junk we can steal.

That sounds like it would just get dirt and bugs into your boots. Then again, you fought in a totally different theater, presumably with less baby-powder sand. If you blouse your trousers properly just below the top of your boots, pull your socks up as high as they will go, and cinch your boots tight rather than tie them, you won't have any problems.

whatever helps..... oh wait, you said "wimmens". For a second there, I thought you meant "women". What are wimmens, anyway? Some kind of drag queen?
In any case, the Army today must be doing something a lot different now, because their method of sticking their trouser legs into their boots looks like absolute ass. They have an annoying tendency to leave their laces untucked, as well.
