It's not. It sounds so disrespectful and so Gen Zed. These Navy Corpsman were killed and wounded on Omaha Beach and calling it a drip sounds like he's making that uniform a stylish "cool" thing and it wasn't. Many of these men are buried in that uniform. Let's be respectful for these men who gave all during the War.

Yeah I'm sure they really called their uniforms "drip" back then. The only thing called drip in the 40's was a case of gonnorhea. Hate that word "drip" To use that word to uniforms that were for some burial clothes is beyond DISRESPECTFUL.

Dad was a U.S. Navy Landing Force Scout Sniper and Beach Jumper . He graduated the Amphibious Warfare College along with my 🌊 Sea 🐝 Bee ⚒️ Raider Uncle Marcel. Your Impression was Spot On, other the Beach Landing Masters had a fur Collar around the Neck, a Whistle, Signal Flags or Flare Gun, Timing ⏱ Watch and usually Rubber Waders or a Rubberized Coverall . Also an Armband and Helmet Stripes as well. Thanks for bringing back memories of Conversations with Pop and my Uncles!
