Marine Corps Changes Dress Code Requirement For Women
Beginning this week, women in the Marines will no longer be required to wear hosiery with their uniform skirts, a first since women became a permanent part of the Marine Corps in 1948.
“Effective immediately, the wear of hosiery with skirts is optional,” the order read. “When wearing hosiery, however, skin tone harmonizing nylon will be worn.”

Welcome to the Average Joe Weekly blog. This is basically my place on the web where I can help spread some of the knowledge that I have accumulated over the years. I served 10+ years in the Marine Corps on Active Duty, but that was some 25 years ago.
