An infantryman out of basic will never wear standard issue boots. Most will go towards Rocky Sv2’s which is what I used in the army and to thru hike the Appalachian Trail.

"Never" is a strong assertion, and false.

No, it’s not.

I did eight years as a grunt, in issued boots. So yes, it's false. Try not to be so certain about things you clearly don't fully understand.

How long ago? I just finished 20 years. If you’re from the black leather boots era you’re correct. New era you’re wrong. Basic issue boots no one wears, they’re horrible for the new PT tests and EIB
