It's not wrong in the American forces because they wear leather-desert type boot/soft leather as their uniform.
It's only wrong if the boots they wear are black or a 'shiny' type jump boot or uniform/combat boot where polish is applied - the Brits still do it I think, and various other countries. The reason for this is because the polish wears off on the rope, making it dangerously slippery. So they phased the feet out of the technique.
