Actually, in this case the bride put the groom's ring in her pocket.
If women want equality they should campaign for pockets.

Good for you Limey, I know women who buy men's jeans for that reason. Not as alluring I guess but a lot more practical. No more purse snatching.

A good name for clothes with pockets for women would be Hot Pockets; but, the name is taken.

If the guys play pocket pool, what do the gals play...pocket golf?

To Stand Out, the Army Picks a New Uniform With a World War II Look



The United States Army wanted a spiffy new service uniform, one that would stand out in a tough recruiting environment and polish the Army’s image after a generation of grinding and divisive wars.

So it turned the clock back. Way back.

It chose a new uniform that looks almost exactly like the old green gabardine wool field coat and khaki trousers that officers wore in World War II. Probably not by coincidence, that’s what the Army was wearing the last time the nation celebrated total victory in a major war. ...

… Army Greens will be the military equivalent of a business suit, which the Army largely stopped using during the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Just as civilians have been dressing more casually in professional and social settings, troops have been wearing camouflage fatigues in situations that used to call for a jacket and tie, like office work or travel between bases. Even in the Pentagon, officers spend a good deal of their time in combat boots.

With far fewer troops deployed in combat operations now, though, the Army has signaled that it wants to get back to the old spit and polish. It is hoping that reintroducing an iconic service uniform from the days of the Band of Brothers and Rosie the Riveter will help reframe its public image. ...

There's more uniform history in the linked story.
