The ASU, Army Service Uniform. It's a formal thing. John will be wearing these for many special events, the deployment ball, things for school and when he's a Drill Sergeant (formal events only) and most IMPORTANTLY our church wedding.
It was very, and I mean, VERY expensive ... but well worth every penny ...
We went to get John fitted for it, and get all his ranks and stripes sewn on. Where we did this was in the center of town in Ansbach. It was a Friday afternoon, and just before everyone was getting off work for the weekend. We're in the alterations shop and John comes out in his blues from the changing room. My God he looked soooooo good!
As he's getting fitted for his uniform, everyone that passes by the shop does a double take at John in his uniform standing up there in the window. He thought it was because he's a soldier they were looking, but I think it's cause he looked so damn good ;)
We had some troubles with this lady at the alterations shop, but I'll let John talk about that one ... he was quite hot over the whole ordeal :(
Thank you again, Dana, for sharing with all of us what happens in Germany.
