    I'm all for our women getting a "get some knickers" allowance and think it should be encouraged and widened to include the general population. The state of some of the grey yokes you'd come across. they should get it in the form of a voucher.(An Ann Summers voucher.)

    Allowances for officers' uniforms have been around for a long time. Officers originally bought their own stuff whereas everyone else was issued with what they needed. Hence the term GI for soldiers in the US.

    I've been told that the mass of different allowances in the Gardai and PDF also suit the government as they can screw people on their pensions as they're worked out on basic pay.

    Maybe the knicker allowance has a certain logic

    The only reason anyone wears new/clean knickers is that if you were brought into hospital with old/dirty knickers your mammy would be morto. I think the generals are afraid of angry mammies

    How clean would you expect your knickers to be after you see a grenade land a foot away?

    I'd imagine women are prone to more 'accidents', down there, in the theatre of war?

    or merely in a theatre. women are generally more high maintenence, down there. This is why we get redeployed in the same bullet riddled jocks
