Well I have decided that its time for at least the Officers to start looking the part when representing the brigade at various things, eg promotions, school visits etc. I am sick of members having to wear their scrubber overalls to represent us. They are only issued 1 pr.
I have organised the brigage to fund fitting out the officers and members a 50% sub to be fitted as well.
I am the only one that has a full dress uniform, so it will be nice to see officers standing side by side at least looking the part.
I seen a local brigade in a christmas pagent recently and they really didnt look to good in their dirty overalls.
I would rather have good comments than bad about our appearance at these events.
Not everyone will agree with me, but that is life
