Flight suits and boots...

Why is it that everytime i see a soldier (airmen, marine) with a flight suit, the pants aren't tucked into the boots?

Because the zipper on the bottom of the pants is uncomfortable to tuck in.

New policy, it was too easy for them to hide the sheep with the pant legs tucked in.

Army Flight Uniform, AR 670-1, 12-5

"Personnel will not tuck the flight coverall into the boots."

Same thing for CVC uniforms, chapter 13, para. 5.

I'm terribly confused, I thought the sheep was a squid thing.
