Now we're going to have to find something new to tease our Navy family about - they're finally ditching that goofy "shipboard camo" pattern for their standard working uniform.

Yeah, the blue and grey one that looks like some ninja wannabe "urban camouflage" deal. It's on the way out, per this article in Navy Times: http://www.navytimes.com/story/military/2016/08/04/us-military-dumping-dumbest-uniform-ever/88048346/

The old dungarees were good enough for decades, then all of a sudden they were not good enough. Progress for the sake of progress. This news should make sailors happy.

Yes, CAMO in the open sea... Works great for rescue also..

Sharks don't see camo do they...???

Dave, what about those Air Force uniforms? I would always mistake them for Greyhound Bus drivers.

Only reason I could ever think of for camo onboard ship is for when you want to skate out of a working party - if the Chief can't find you, you can't get volunteered!

Not sure how well that works though...
