U. S. Navy Uniforms


Most of you know that the "Flower Child" served in the U. S. Navy some years ago. The above picture shows two Sailors working the Chart desk on a Modern Aircraft Carrier. These two Sailors are performing their task and also wearing the "Working Uniform" that I proudly wore until I made Chief Petty officer.
This picture shows the new "Navy Camo" modeled by the Master Chief of the U. S. Navy as he prepares to serve "Chow" onboard a Gator Freighter.

Some view this new camo as a step forward. As a retiree I have fond memories of the old style "Work Uniform," and I will always remember how the trousers could be made into a "Life Preserver" should the need develop.

Time will tell if the New Navy Camo is a winner. Remember you saw it first on the Flower Child's Blog - The World This Week.
