I'd be willing to bet there's a whole bunch of US Soldiers these days that wouldn't have the slightest clue how to shine a pair of shoes! Boots are tan suede, shoes are plastic (except mine, of course...always have to be different...I wear leather chukka-style ankle boots with my class A and B uniforms).
True. But most of the men I know who are in the army are nearly ready to retire after their "quick 20" lol

They're the issue brogues worn with mess dress. SCOTS officers also wear the lace up type as well with barrack dress etc.
I have a pair of the issued lace up brogues...no where near that bulled up yet, but a work in progress.

Absolutely Love them. Also a wonderful job on the shine. I miss the days of spending time on my boot shine to show I was a bit better than the other guy. I used to have a pair of jungles you could see color reflections in.
