Uniforms:

The Australian Navy summer uniform includes:
1) white shorts, well above the knee.
2) either navy blue knee socks and shoes or white knee socks and (white) shoes.

Just...no. Grown men + white shorts + knee socks? Seriously, who thought that was a good idea?

I'm told that the US Navy has a similar uniform but that it is only approved in very hot places and US sailors never choose to wear it. Not true of the Australians. Not true at all.
