In both the RN and USN females in lower ranks are now dressed in seaman’s uniforms. I think their previous attire of smart button up jackets etc was splendid. I wonder why it was decided to make the change. Bob Taylor

Hello The United States Navy and the United States Marine Corps have went to one set of uniforms for both men and women in order to be more fluid and save money for the services by reducing the number of uniforms that are carried. While that is the official reason that was given, I too agree losing the female John Paul Jones headgear was a sad loss of history and unique identification. The same goes for cammo uniforms as all branches are going to the same across the board with multicam. Hope this helps.
