Cross-dressing appeals to men soldiers too!

Amusing news report on the British Army’s need to stop their officers cross-dressing!

A newspaper piece in The Daily Star newspaper showed in Sept 2017, how all these years later, following on from historic women cross-dressing as soldiers to fight, the special forces male soldiers rather fancy cross-dressing too! But for fun not for fighting! The news piece is headlined

“Royal Marines banned from wearing dresses on boozy nights out”.

Commanders say the Green Berets’ tradition of donning “women’s rig” has got to stop.One senior officer is reported to have raged: “The Royal Marines are an elite fighting force – not a bunch of cross -dressers”.For years, commandos have dressed up in women’s clothes while taking part in pub drinking sessions.Burly men dressed as ballerinas or wearing floral dresses complete with wigs and high heels have long been a common sight in towns close to their bases.But now the custom looks set to end after one officer warned dressing in drag was “bringing the world famous name of the Royal Marines into disrepute”.
