Is the Russian army to poor to buy socks?

Nothing To Do With Arbroath: Russian army vows to ban foot cloths in favour of socks

Russia's defence minister expressed horror on Monday that soldiers were still wrapping cloths around their feet instead of wearing socks, and vowed the historic practice must end this year. "I would like to give an order that in 2013, at least by the end of the year, we forget the word 'foot cloths'," Sergei Shoigu told military top brass.

If foot cloths have always worked in the past, and work in the present, why then get rid of them?

The answer is - just because!

Get with the program! If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
