Your Platoon Sgt. would be all up in your grill if he saw those now.

PFC Zeek, you have got thirty minutes to get a spit shine on those boots. If you still look like a rag bag your a** will be grass and I will be the lawn mower. Those jungle boots were a heck of a lot more comfortable and I ran PT in them for years.

I picked up the jump boots in my teens as a cadet. The jungle boots were what I normally wore on the tanks, and yes they were much more comfortable.

I got mine in 1987 when I graduated from jump school. They're sitting in my closet under my Class A's with a maroon beret rolled up in the left one. Next time I wear them will be to be buried in.

Funny thing is paratroopers know how uncomfortable they are and we only wore them with Class A's, wore jungle boots or leg boots the rest of the time. Legs loved to wear them with BDU's. Go figure.
