Annapolis, UNITED STATES: Midshipmen at the US Naval Academy applaud during a speech by US President George W. Bush 30 November, 2005, at the US Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. Bush sought to defuse worries about his Iraq war strategy, but warned there would be violence there "for many years" and declined to set a date for a US pullout. "Decisions about troop levels will be driven by the conditions on the ground in Iraq and the good judgment of our commanders, not by artificial timetables set by politicians in Washington," he charged. Before Bush spoke, his national security council released a 35-page policy paper that predicted a reduction in the US military presence in 2006 but warned there was no "date certain" for a complete pullout or for victory. The policy paper blamed Syria and Iran for creating an "inhospitable" climate for Iraqi democracy by backing insurgents and terrorists. AFP Photo/Paul J. RICHARDS (Photo credit should read PAUL J.

I thought the new m/05s were coming into use in spring 2006? I guess the officers get them a wee bit earlier.

[Lazarou]

I thought the new m/05s were coming into use in spring 2006? I guess the officers get them a wee bit earlier.

M/05 will be issued in 2007 and for all troops simultaneously, although it has been in limited test use for a while already.
I guess the brigadegeneral is wearing it just for pr-reasons.

[saigonsmuggler]

Apparently the officer died! RIP! :(
