To the Editor: After reading an
article in a June issue of a p~pular
magazine about "Monkey Suits of
the United States Navy," I decided
to see what good it would do to
stir up things on the home front.
A Senator has been trying to get
these monkey suits of ours changed
to something that would resemble
a practical uniform; one that would
not only fit the wearer properly,
but would also stop making us feel
like silly kids when in public. A lot
of gobs are banking on the Senator
to come through with flying colors.
This is a modern world, so why
are nearly 3,000,000 men forced to
walk around in a uniform that is
200 years out of date? Naval of-
ficers always look 'sharp because
their uniforms are kept up to date.
So what .about the lowly gob? Give
him a break and a uniform he will
be really proud of. Let tradition go
jump in the lake. Change our uni-
forms to something decent, and
