What kind of 'high standard' is telling your people they have to wear civilian clothes to work then change, then work, then change to be able to stop somewhere on the way home and pick up kids at daycare, or whatever. I'm all for high standards but that just doesn't pass the sanity check. Now if you're saying it's because the uniform doesn't look good or is not presentable, I'll buy that but I don't think that's the case.
Oh, so now its a field uniform and not a working uniform. I see how it is. I'll agree to disagree........heaven forbid I wouldn't want to not look like a recruiting poster. Hear the sarcasm here
