Hello!
I am starting to think about what to wear for our engagement pictures. I want my FI to wear his ACU's for one outfit and I'm trying to decide what to wear. I know I have to match the 'formalness". but I just have a hard time picking something!
Anyone have any suggestions or personal experiances to share?
Thank you!

[QUOTE]Tx, our e photographer (so not JL) asked me to put H's garrison cover on. H burst out laughing, and I gave a whole speech about why I would never. "Uniforms are not costumes. They're earned. Etc." My e photog was a Navy spouse! :'

Love your response! She should have known better.
[QUOTE]What about the ASU's? That seems like a more appropriate choice for having professional pictures taken than ACU's.

I gave my FI the choice and he chose his ACUs.
You said you gave him the choice between DB's and ACU's. ASU's are neither of those. That's why I asked. Honestly, I wouldn't have given DH the choice of a cammie uniform but he wouldn't have picked it anyway.

That's why I asked how long he's been in. He sounds new-ish.
[QUOTE]I understand the regulations for wearing a uniform and I would never violate that, or make him do anything against the rules.

Funny you should say that...
THE ACU IS ISSUED AS A COMBAT UNIFORM AND IS NOT INTENDED FOR WEAR AS AN ALL-PURPOSE UNIFORM WHEN OTHER UNIFORMS (CLASS A OR B, DRESS, AND MESS UNIFORM) ARE MORE APPROPRIATE.

So which was it?
LOL this is just hilarious. Number one, a spouse in no way rates to put on any part of a uniform regardless of what is adorning said uniform. Number two, it is just laughable that you think that divorces are the result of something someone outside the marriage has done. The success of a marriage is solely the responsibility of the partners involved in the marriage.
