Soldier’s combat clothing is not supposed to be ironed, according to an unwritten rule.  That, however, did not prevent one sergeant from slightly massaging a regulation.  “Gentleman,” said the sergeant, “I cannot order you to press your combat dress.   Nevertheless, for tomorrow’s  parade uniforms will be allowed only four wrinkles, with one wrinkle running directly down the center and rear of each leg.”

Obviously...   

I think my camies were so starched that they could stand inspection without me in them.

Gentleman, that is CORPS, not Corp.

Besides, it could of happened in the 50's.  They had a crease in the dungarees back then.   My laundry was done on base and they all had those creases.

Paraffin my good man. You were not to use starch  Wink
Waxing the inside you could make that knee crease AND the front crease stay.
Funny how that wax smelled a lot like Magic Sizing though...
