Guns out: Why the Army moved to allow rolled sleeves for soldiers

So what's the big deal? Rolled down sleeves are good enough for the Marines, why not the Army? Now they can be rolled down. When I was in Nam, almost everyone rolled up their sleeves, or cut them off. I thought it looked cool, and it was cooler.

The practice was banned for years. Then there was a pilot program. The results were studied closely. And on Tuesday, the Army made its big decision: Rolled sleeves on camouflage uniforms are now completely acceptable.
