USFJ Implements New Dress Code
The United States Forces Japan (USFJ) has implemented a new dress code to enhance the appearance of US military personnel in Japan. This new dress code is identical to the dress code in effect for all Second Infantry Division soldiers in Korea. All 2ID soldiers are required to carry a small book called the Warrior Standard Book in their right cargo pocket that describes all 2ID policies including pictures of improper dress clothing. Soldiers like to joke that in the field the book is great substitute for not having a Maxum magazine handy because you can check out the skimpyly dressed women in the Warrior Standard instead.
Here is the slideshow that depicts the new USFJ dress code. These dress codes are very unpopular with soldiers but I tend to agree with them because some soldiers dress like absolute slobs as evident by these pictures:
Why some people feel like they got to show their underwear to everyone is beyond me. However, some of the things prohibited I really don’t find to offensive:
The above clothing is not something you uncommonly see here in Korea or Japan by the civilian population. Just take a look at the people out on a weekend in Kangnam in Seoul or go to Roppongi in Tokyo. So if soldiers are to dress like this I don’t see why the surrounding population would be offended by it?
A dress code is definitely needed but maybe it can be fine tuned to accomodate the soldiers and still give a positive image to the surrounding population.
What they're really trying to do is make sure the Yankees stand out from the rest of the population so that they make easier targets for MPs/CPs/SPs/whatever.

Let's see how Korea was before annexation to Japan empire.

It'll only work for you since it's on your computer.
GI, here again is your double-speak in action: you say, "A dress code is definitely needed but maybe it can be fine-tuned to accomodate the soldiers, and still give a positive image to the surrounding population."
If a dress code is "needed" according to you, why are you so sympathetic with conforming to your surrounding population of Asians? You do seem to share the cross-dressing instinct of the Marmot.
Everyone speaks through clothes.
Whatever one wears, it always telegraphs a position or direction on moral values. A low waistline and lots of skin makes one statement, a high pantline another. Long, messy hair makes one statement. Well-controlled or covered hair, another statement. One can either dress to convey tradition, or license and dissolution. Purity and ideals, or impurity and cynicism. Every woman who wears a pair of pants is resonating to a certain set of assumptions and attitudes, whether she is conscious of it or only subconscious. That goes for the soldier with the low-riding jeans and butt-crack exposed.
GI, did you know a "postive" image to the Asian natives is less important than mutually re-inforcing the culture of military respect and discipline — amongst our own soldiers?
You didn't?
GI, for a military man — you got the values of a hippy.
Did you join the all-volunteer Army merely for the benefits?
You act like you dress. And while overseas you are a direct representative of the United States. Of course we don't want you dressing like a thug….
GI,
I am a woman who needs to let your neutered-mind in on a little secret about us women in the the NEW Army:
Female psychology and behavior are considerably more malleable than male psychology and behavior. Tighten military morality and female soldiers become Victorian prudes. Loosen military morality and it's nipple, tongue and clit piercing time! Women are incapable of self-regulating themselves.
They need MEN to govern them.
The USFK culture — plus malleable female, stealth- homosexual, and neutered-male psychology — equals social and organizational disintegration at the USFK.
It's that simple! Don't let your multiculturalism fool you.
USFK needs to tighten its ship — lest Korean ajummas over-run Yongsan's perimeters — forcing an American capitulation to Korean parasitism.
GI, get your balls and priorities in the right place.
