Urban legend has it that US commando troops in Vietnam used to not wear underpants under their uniforms. This was due to the fact that they would have to walk through water a lot and the wet underpants would be very uncomfortable to wear.btw, where does this "going commando style" come from? I know what it means, I use it, but what's the origin?
There are other variants of the legend, but it is usually some reason why commando troups would not wear underwear in some kind of situation.
Hence "going commando".
