Clearly someone has watched Starship Troopers and/or Star Wars recently.

One does wonder why the Space Force need riding boots?

Hopefully saner minds will prevail.

I expect someone in the purchasing chain will adjust this to a more practical uniform; I think that is what INTERNATIONAL RESCUE did in creating 'parade' and 'field' uniforms.

For me there is overwhelming evidence now of the US President having early onset dementia.  It was bad enough with the previous President but with this one is there enough cushioning from his Aides to stop serious error?

Well no-one liked the Camo version in 2020

Perhaps he thought he might see how many hackles he could raise by flying kites. (It's only a 'potential' uniform)
Did quite well by the looks of it.

More likely he is simply mad and undergoing dementia. Of course in the world of Starship Troopers  Donald Trump would not  have been allowed to hold  any form of political office because he had not served in the military.

I was expecting something more like this, to be honest.

A fitting replacement for "Hail to the chief?"
