He is the one that came up with those silly name patches the uniform stuff right?I came in on the tail end of that nonsense lucky for me my job did not require me to wear blues very often.
I can agree with you there.For example the new Air Force symbol they sent out several questionnaires about it and it was a topic of discussion I do not recall a single person saying that they liked it but we got stuck with it.
I was lucky enough at my last base we had an E-7 that had been at the same base since 81'(I have no idea how he pulled that off) if someone had a "bright" idea he had seen it fail or succeed before of course the brass and senior NCOs usually ignored him.Then the "bright" idea would wind up sucking and I would think "why did they not listen to the old man".
I have to hand it to the people that can do 20+ years kudos for putting up with it for that long (if you where the decent type).
