Spec Ops and the QDR

What do you mean SF guys got in trouble also? (lol)

There were several reasons behind the decision, regardless it was one of the better ones when it came to uniforms. Airborne soldiers earned the maroon beret and deserve to wear it. The Candy Stripe was insulting to those who wore it, and it created confusion outside the organization on who and who wasn't SF qualified. GS thanks for your service, our SOT-A teams are hard as nails and are doing great work in support of GWOT.

Bill, thanks for laughing at the joke. What is even funnier is that all of the non-airborne qualified soldiers in group continue to wear maroon berets.
