Weekly Challenge 154: People in uniform

I think the title speaks for itself.
In our society are lots of professions with uniforms even at some school are uniforms required, some will love it and others don't.
Show the best you've got.


Challenge ends tuesday 21 December at midnight

The fine print....
1. Post ONE photo (max 1024x1024).
2. The photo must portray an interpretation of the theme.
3. Post your single picture in this thread, and explain what motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly theme (especially if it's not obvious).
4. The challenge is interactive. Any response is welcome.
5. The judge will pick the WINNERS and choose 1 of them to be the judge for the next week.
6. This challenge runs for 7 days plus a day for the judge to choose the winners.
7. Any Pentax camera will do or a Samsung DSLR.
8. Pictures can be from any time frame, not just within the week of the current theme.

Uniform Definition at Answers.com:
A distinctive outfit intended to identify those who wear it as members of a specific group.
I think this applies..... :
