Going commando has nothing to do with shit. because uniforms are suppose to be loose and allow a lot of ease in movement and to aid in cammouflage but not too baggy to gat hung up on anything. When it is hot and humid soldiers in the field can get crotch rot and also get rubbed raw. you don't want to have to much wet scanky fabric next to that part of your body. It is because soldiers sweat a lot and they cant take showers for days. It is one the best ways way to prevent crotch rot and rashes. I should know been there done that.

Going commando is the practice of not wearing underwear under one's outer clothing. The term is theorised to be related to the much earlier term "going regimental", which refers to wearing the kilt military style, that is, without underwear.
Kilts have been traditionally worn without undergarments since their use as part of Scottish military uniform, leading to the invention of such expressions as "going commando" or"go regimental" or "military practice" for wearing no underwear. On the Western Front during the First World War, some Sergeants Major reportedly had mirrors tied to the end of golf clubs or walking sticks to inspect up and under the kilt at parade inspection. However, in 1940 the kilt was retired from combat due to the vulnerability of bare skin to chemical agents, although it was retained as the formal dress uniform of the regiments. In the 1950s, kilted soldiers on parade would be checked by the Sergeant Major using a mirror on the barracks floor. In 1997, a Black Watch soldier received wide press exposure, because of windy conditions during a military ceremony in Hong Kong.

To not wear underwear with pants. Named so because your junk is going in alone, and without support, much like a commando.

*To masturbate.
*A type of military operation and technique involving a solo commando unit.
*To not wear underwear (the reason for this really revolves around the fact that commando missions are so intense that you supposedly shit your pants...thus if you don't wear underwear during a commando mission, you basically test yourself in the attempt to ensure that you don't crap yourself during the mission).
