Boots On Ground

Say hello to my Wellco X-Force desert boots: they may not look like much (kinda beat up and grungy right now), but these are the most comfortable boots I have ever worn. Period. And, they were issued. Boots are one of those things that military people have a love/hate relationship with - we depend on them to protect our feet, and help us get from point A to Point B. Usually, military-issued boots are of the lowest common denominator, but somehow I got issued some SF-type stuff (evidently, they ran out of regular-guy boots in my size, and had to reach back into the special operator pile). Outstanding. I can only describe these Wellcos as like walking on clouds (with whipped cream inserts). Not a day goes by that I don't thank the gods of military footwear for these boots (especially when my friends tell me about their foot problems).
