Ok....so first off, let me say that I'm all about "America, Fuck ya!", especially on this Day of Independence, but will someone tell me what proud history the city of Chicago has with our armed services? I have no problem at all with how San Diego pulls this off for Sunday games and other holidays, but that's because San Diego is the west-coast home to the Navy and Camp Pendleton is close by...but Chicago?!? What am I missing here?

Navy
The Navy’s boot camp is just outside of Chicago (Great Lakes). Also, the Navy Pier in Chicago was used during WWII to train over 60,000 service members on Lake Michigan.

Wow…OK…I never new that…thanks for the tip. The camo thing still doesn’t make sense…don’t know what else they could wear, but when I see camo, the last thing I think of is the Navy.
Adoptive papa to Omar...so basically I'm screwed.

The first thing I think of is actually faux trendy teens who are dressed like crap.
That;s probably a very sad thing.
