I googled them, are they called GI glasses? I don’t think they look bad. At least not on the guy I see in the picture of them (Vietnam Era glasses)
Edit: missed a few words.

I guess it depends on the person wearing them, haha… Like Joker in Full Metal Jacket :p

Yes the Dutch military has always been a little more relaxed on the rules. US is super strict and some things are ridiculously so, hehe
