General Discussion

and I'm not down with that either. What's wrong is that military personnel are being recruited to supply the optics for this spectacle because they don't want UFC's usual audience of dumpy white trash MAGA guys wearing greasy t-shirts and pants with their butt cracks showing. They want an audience of fit, handsome male soldiers in their dress uniforms because it will look good for the cameras. Which makes me wonder, if a soldier wanted to go to some other UFC event on his own time, would he wear his dress uniform? I think not. And isn't there a specific rule about military personnel being prohibited from wearing their uniforms "during or in connection with the furtherance of political activities, private employment or commercial interests, when an inference of official sponsorship for the activity or interest could be drawn"? 32 CFR 53.2
