Default Dress trivia

Here's a bit of Canadian trivia in the same vein:

The only order pertaining to dress issued by Monty in N. Africa came after a Canadian soldier, completely naked except for a very natty top hat, was driving a truck past the Field Marshall. The driver promptly gave an "eyes right" and then doffed his top hat in salute. Nonplussed, Monty promptly issued the order, "There shall be no more wearing of top hats in the 8th Army!"
