God, I remember the uniform debacle in the Air Force. He-who-shall-not-be-named and his stupid bus driver/airline pilot service dress.
I think that was the closest I ever experienced of a wide spread mutiny. So many troops, some at very high levels, simply refused to buy the new uniform and when hwsnbn rotated out of the Chief of Staff position, you could almost see the trash cans bulging.
It was a dark time. It is fortunate that the youngerlings in the AF were spared.
