What constitutes being "old school" in the military?

Teaching a platoon the old infantry drill of Civil War times. for competition.

And ohh yeah, PT uniform for me was boots a t shirt and those same mono colored fatigues pants. We never had a PT "uniform" shin splints we're rampant!!

I ate C rations, wore mono colored fatigues and drove a gamma goat ambulance. And even though we said the M-16 was made by Tonka I could shoot the heck out of it!!

Eating C-rations that were canned 3 years prior to your birth.
"Breaking starch" on your fatigues more than once a day.
Getting your first sets of permanent press, wash & wear fatigues and khakis.
Having rank (and branch insignia for officers) on your collar where they belong and not on your belly.
Doing PT in trousers, boots, and a tee shirt with a four mile run in formation to finish each day's session.

If your "brand new" Honeywell computers with 4-inch monitors in SUDAPS had metal tags reading "Property of US Air Force", you know you're Old School. If your entire warehouse inventory of repairable aircraft parts worth over $250,000,000 was tracked by hand on Stock Status Cards, you know you're Old School. When physically "disciplining" an obstinate troop got you a quiet handshake and an "attaboy" from the Gunny instead of Office Hours, you know you're Old School.

How many Airman here have worn “tans”
