Also it'd feel pretty cool to shoot someone's kepi off, just sayin'.
The important question is this;
If I can have my hat shot off.. can I pick it up and put it back on? Because I'm not going anywhere without my bloody hat. (Also, fuck yo' kepis. Slouch hat all the way.)
In addition, I'd rather not see uniforms 'degrade' during battles. Getting dirty, or being cut/shot apart is one thing, but falling apart over the course of ten minutes to an hour is a bit much. You have to remember that uniforms were made to last months in the field, and wouldn't simply dissolve because you marched around and fought a bit.
In short:
Getting filthy, and damaged from being wounded; Yes. Beginning to show signs of wear during a round; No.
And I can see the donator arrogance I feared a year or so ago has begun.
