Sigh...setting up a Blazer for my G/Ws

[The CyBorg is destroyed]

I think this is why so many people don't mind the corporate kit...it's cheap and not standardised.

About any white shirt, grey trousers and dark-blue jacket will work.

They could at least specify item placement...they do for the shirt.

I used my Long/Short Sleeve Aviator underneath my Blazer, Lol. It said White Shirt. BTW, I found an cool Aviator Alternative for those guys not wanting to buy the Aviators.

Army Class B White Shirt are Perfect for the Grays and Whites.

As a proud owner of the Ice Cream Man Uniform ASU I will warn you that some of the supply comes with military creases- which is a no-go in 39-1.

Edit: at least it is for the blues, I haven't checked for the G/Ws though. Maybe you're right but they are prohibited for other uniform combinations, so I'd hesitate before getting whites with the creases regardless of their mention in 39-1.

According to the 39-1, with the Gray and Whites, It does not say anything about the Sewn In Creases. As matter of fact it just says aviator style white shirt with Epaulettes.

Won't work... the private purchase (Marlow-White) Army white shirt straight off the rack has pre-sewn military creases (I haven't gone into the Redstone Arsenal MCSS to check and see if the DSCP Army-issue shirt already has the pre-sewn creases or not.) Military creases on the white shirt are strengstens verboten in the draft 39-1, the current version is silent about them.

I dont see anywhere where it is not Allowed.

It is written specifically to disallow security guard shirts - it identifies them three ways:  sewn in creases, scalloped pockets and badge eyelets.  Army shirts will not have the latter two.

Meaning: they want you to buy the one Vanguard sells.

Not necessarily so... the manual specifies an 'aviator' shirt. By definition an 'aviator' shirt is a military-style uniform shirt with flap pockets and epaulets. Coincidentally, and I wouldn't have put it past them by design, Van Heusen makes a shirt branded 'The Aviator', which is - of course - sold by Scamguard Vanguard. (They suck, in my opinion; there are better quality white 'aviator' shirts that more closely resemble the blue AF-style shirt with mitered pockets. Go to www.pilotshirts.com - their pinpoint oxford is what I wear for G/W.)

I've got the commander style shirts. Not sure how I feel about it. Seems a gray area by ommission. All nhq pictures always had the aviator shirts, ang VG stocking those screams 'intended' to me.

[SarDragon]

In the olde Bookstore/CAP Mart catalogs, the Van Heusen Aviator was specified. These are available, not only through Vanguard, but locally at pilot shops, which is my source. They are frequently a little cheaper there, and there's no shipping involved.

I like the look of the shirt that mimics the blues shirt, and when you do search for an "aviator shirt" on google images, it certainly shows all sorts, but again, I feel like the intent was to get a shirt wit pointy pockets, so here we are.

Several NB meetings ago, in Reno, I brought this subject up to Ms. Parker. Her response was the pocket style did not matter.

..and all those ICLs, manuals, and memos were written before the Big V handover.

As for what the *draft* says..  It's a -draft- so I wouldn't be weighing anything on it.

..and that is somewhat of an issue. Interpretations by non-member staffers.. have mostly been "correct-enough", but not always.

And is probably preferable, since its probably made to have stuff pinned on all over it.

Even the DLATS (troop issue) ASU shirt has pre-sewn military creases. When the new 39-1 comes out it'll be verboten for wear.

Every white shirt I use for CAP will be unauthorized when that regulation comes out.
