...pants, of course, are not for everybody. Even Designer Rudi Gernreich, who likes the look, admits that "it is great, but only for great bodies." London's Daily Mirror is more explicit: "Shorts should sell," it warned last week, "only to those fashion enthusiasts under, say, 25, and under 36-inch-we hope-hips. The rest-and that's the most-should regard them with the kind of distaste reserved for the measles...

Neither the English nor the German is very memorable, no matter how deeply felt...

That is another way of saying that nations tend to get the armies and navies that they want or deserve.
