The Navy has ditched its iconic and beloved coveralls for sailors aboard ships for a new, two-piece uniform that was finally approved on Monday after years of trials and a decade after a previous version of the uniform was found to be dangerously flammable.

Fleet Forces spokeswoman Lt. Cmdr. Madisyn Hansen confirmed to Military.com that the 2-Piece Organizational Clothing -- more commonly called the "2POC" -- is now hitting the fleet.
