Have you bought all your uniforms?

The Navy is a little more than four months away from its fleet-wide switch-over to the blue-and-gray Navy working uniform.
By Jan. 1, every officer and sailor will be required to have four sets of the NWU, along with all the accessories. Sailors E-6 and below must also have the black-and-khaki Navy service uniform. Sailors were given super-sized uniform allowances in 2008 and 2009 to cover the costs of the new items.
So have you bought everything, or did you buy one or two sets with plans to buy the rest later? Did you spend your uniform allowance on clothing or put it toward something else? How are your uniforms holding up so far?
O.k. first off let me say they were not given a SUPER-SIZED allowance.....The navy is like a fashion show they are always changing the uniform to something new. How is everyone supposed to keep up and keep buying these? My husband only has two at the moment but to buy two more in my opinion is crazy. Then they are also trying to change the nwu's to the desert tan like the marine's have currently. They cant really think by switching the uniform's up all the time make's things better. If they want to make clothes become a designer but don't keep making these sailors jump through these hoops over uniforms.
For those of you that don't know this is the current NWU which means navy working uniform....This is a picture I found off of photobucket.com
