Right now you could even say we have a case Schrodinger's CAPM39-1.  Until it comes out we may have changes and we may have no changes.

So 39-1 exists in a superposition of multiple states?

As we're more than halfway through May, and (as of the time of this posting) the new 39-1 hasn't been released by NHQ yet (despite unofficially having a target month of May 2014), do you think it will be released before the month is up?

Some are having difficulty transitioning from Office 2010 to Office 2013 ....

Not much to tell really. Even though most/all of what went into the uniform manual has been seen and approved by CAP-USAF ( at least as far as USAF style uniforms ) as OK , there have been some changes in the interim based on the feedback from the membership.

Are you at liberty to tell us (or even hint) at to what these changes are?

I don't think I have a canonical list of the post-member comment changes.  I do know that a couple were added (Circled US for NCOs, embroidered CAP emblem on blue windbreaker like the USAF, tweaks to the National Staff Badge) before it went to CAP-USAF, but I don't know about all the 20-ish suggested changes that came about after the comment period.

I've only really heard about a few thru casual conversation (remove cutouts from field jacket epaulets, for example).

Guess I'm as in the dark as anybody on this until it comes out.

From anything you've heard or seen any change with the Aeronautical ratings on the Distinctive Field Uniform?  The whole light blue patch thing doesn't sound like it will look that great.

Honestly don't recall.  I know when ABUs was in the mix, the consideration was for dark blue tapes on both ABU & BluDUs (lol), but those went away when ABUs were removed from the mix.  Since distinctive field uniform is not really something I own, I didn't pay close attention when I read that part!

The more I think about this, the more aggravated I get.

Okay, fine, they insist we continue to wear that butt-ugly white shirt that nobody likes.  They took away the authorization to wear the flight cap with the blue flight suit and made no attempt to resolve our lack of headgear with the aviator shirt outfit (and, no, the baseball cap doesn't count as it's wildly inappropriate with that outfit).  But at least we could wear navy blue tapes and insignia with the BBDUs, so the entire "walking billboard" effect would be lessened.  At the very least, we would look sharp in the BBDUs.

Well, we couldn't have that, could we?

So they apparently took the time and effort to take that out once ABUs weren't in the future.  But that's okay, because they tweaked the National Staff Badge!  And added circles to the US insignia on the USAF-style coats for the handful of NCOs that we have!  And got rid of those bothersome CAP cutouts on BDU field jackets!  And finally, finally, ended our long national nightmare and got embroidery on the USAF-style windbreaker.

But let's make sure we get one final dig into the those fat and furries.

I am now convinced that, present company excepted, the attitude of The Powers That Be towards the "Distinctive Corporate Uniform" members is, at best, passive-aggressive, if not outright hostile. 

Sorry, but I'm growing weary of donating my time, energy, and money to an organization that not only considers me a 2nd-class member, but makes sure I don't forget it.  A couple of things in CAP have been irking me as of late, and this will be the straw that breaks the camel's back.

I'm done.  I'm out.  I'll meet my obligations until my membership runs out, but I will not be renewing.

You're quitting over the uniform?   Really? 

Thanks for playing.
