Unless it is deemed "the uniform of the day" while you're on recruiting duty, I think it would be your call. Dress for the occasion. If it is hot outside, you wouldn't be waltzing around town in your Alpha's or Bravo's, would you?
Also, be cautious of wearing any military uniform in public. It makes it easier for terrorists to identify you. You're setting yourself up to be a target.
Don't lose your head, use your head.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
