Do you think the Rangers will get back their black berets with the new changes in our new government?

1. I doubt that the President-elect will be personally weighing in on a uniform decision.

2. A few months ago I ran across an old copy of the Stars and Stripes from Germany in the early 70s containing pictures of soldiers from 11th ACR wearing their black berets. To get a better perspective on what the Army leadership was thinking about when the beret decision came down, SMA Tilley, an Armor NCO, wrote a piece that is found here: http://www.armystudyguide.com/content/army_board_study_guide_topics/uniforms/history-of-the-black-bere.shtml. Should be interesting reading from anyone who wants to know the whys and wherefores.

I whant to go back,to the service and garrison caps.Why? Because they are part of the Army tradition,since World War 1.

No,I don't think so.The buf beret were the originals during World War 2.
The black beret's for the Rangers,were install by mistake,imitating the british and french commandos.

I really hope so , they started the Black Beret ,
just like Pres. Kennedy signed that the U. S. Army Green Beret can only wear it's Green Beret .
and the Maroon Beret ( red ) is for the 88th Air Born ( 82nd or 88th )
only SPL. Units can wear the Beret.

yes

Yes

Members of the 11th Cavalry were awarded the black beret in 74 I believe, because we were standing guard on freedoms frontier in W Germany border and were excellent at our job ! We guarded the Fulda Gap and kept the Soviets at bay and kept the most valuable area on earth free from nuclear destruction because of our show of strength!

Uniform selection is relegated to some lite colonel's wife. Politics has nothing to do with it.

The black beret should not go back to the Rangers. The legacy of the black beret has forever been tainted by forcing the entire Army to wear it. It was ridiculous to take it away from the Rangers, who earned the right to wear it, and give it to us that never did, all while making the Rangers change to tan. Keep them in the tan beret and retire the black forever

God, i do hope so!
