Does your junior corps jacket still fit you?

[madscout96]

Meaningless topic

[liebot]

Yes, but probably because I haven't aged out yet.

[84BDsop]

Yes....unless I actually try and close it!

[BigBadMadMan]

Well, David...

If by "fit" you mean having it look like it was made to button at the neck, and have the buttons at the waist be approximately 8 inches away from closing...

Then yes,

...yes it does.

Not only does mine NOT fit, but I bought another one about ten years ago and that no longer fits either!!! I'm TWICE the man I used to be.

How would I describe myself now in my corps jacket from 1986?

Mine still fits. Sort of. Fortunately baggy was the style back then. And the sizes actually matched their specs. i.e. You didn't need XXXXXL bibbers to fit a 36" waiste. Not to imply that I can flex in it, or zip it up.

Word of advise, if you join the military and you leave stuff at home, mark it

"I still want this when I get back."

Need I say more?

I nearly spat Dr. Pepper everywhere after reading that...

I just put it on, It's short and tight BUT I can get away with wearing it in public.

I aged out at 175 and now I bodybuild and I am 230.

So it got tight on the shoulders and back and not WAIST!

SUPERMAN JACKET!
