What constitutes being "old school" in the military?

Fatigues for calisthenics in combat boots, M-1 rifle in basic training, WW II barracks, grease pit, yardbird, KP, smoke ‘em if ya got ‘em, beer bars, pass bus. That’s enough.

OMG! This is when we realize that we REALLY ARE OLD!!! JAJAJAJA!!!

Simple, brown boots.

I was in from 04/30 76 11/B10 TowPlt

PT uniform was fatigues and boots. Issue weapon was an M-14. No optics, iron sights EM were quartered in a squad bay, E-5 and above had rooms. Butt cans on the uprights in WWII barracks. Up-armor on our Jeeps were sandbags on the floorboards. Flak jackets. No ear or eye pro.

Mt PT shorts were grey & Gamma Goats SUCKED, everything else is 100% spot on. Basic Ft. Polk, 1967, AIT Ft. Sam, 67-68, never called to go to RVN but I supposed I would've since I hate cold weather.

Navy, "fan room counseling"!
