I wonder how it would affect our training if Reservists were not allowed to wear their uniforms before entering or after leaving the barracks.
Obviously there would be the issue of changing facilities and i.d cards, but surely thay can be handled in the reorg.
The PR benefit alone of not having fatties and apemen wandering the streets in DPM would be worth it.
Certainly it would put a stop to the issue of drinking in uniform outside of barracks, for some of the worst walters time wasters and space takers in the reserve strutting about in the uniform is a major part of their buzz (they certainly dont get it from putting in effort) so a policy of not wearing the uniform in public (maybe not even taking it home, laundry parades?) would also unburden us of many such individuals.
