Please help me instill a greater sense of professionalism in my senior squadron and tell me what to wear to the meeting tonight!
(legal disclaimer: this is an attempt at humor)
Blues
How about lime vest, no shirt, and a kilt?
(legal disclaimer: this too, is an attempt at humor)
Determine what you will be doing at the meeting, and designate the most appropriate, and complete uniform for the job.
I prefer blues/corporate for business a tire
BBDU, BDU's for utility work
I prefer to not wear flight suits, or polo shirts unless mission duties dictate.
My $.02
I know people disagree.

Interesting choice of uniforms. I prefer flight suit with a polo shirt over top, and the flight cap worn Napolean style, and maybe the high gloss shoes.
(Note: Legal disclaimers are not valid unless 2/3 of the vote of the house is present. I vote yes. Yes to what? I don't know, but it's the thought that counts. Right?)

Careful, not to touch someone's sacred cow!
This is an attempt at humor. I will wear an appropriate uniform tonight even though most will come in civilian clothes.
Nice, sorry about the short answer then... I am currently sick and also tired, and as a music teacher, I just completed teaching Geometry (something I'm not certified to teach nor given any preparation or materials for). This makes for a very cranky 1st Lt.
Brown paper sack over your head with eye holes and a Jon Kitna jersey (a blue one of course) with the new command patch?
I just had a funny image come to mind-
One of those paper "dress-up dolls" kids used to play with, but with CAP uniforms. You could even mix & match the tops & bottoms. I wonder what BDU pants would look like with the Polo...

Not good. Are the boots included? Cause that would make it rock.

Oh yeah! Covers too. Think of the possibilities:
BBDU cover, short sleeve AF blue shirt, gray slacks bloused over combat boots.
Flight cap, BDU blouse, BBDU pants, hi-gloss dress shoes
If I were a talented Flash programmer, I'd whip up something like this just for fun,,,

Maybe we can talk SARKID into doing something like this. What do you think SARKID?
I'm not sure what I should say to the fact that the items I voted for (4/5) had the same responses...
Dress blues, tennis shoes and a light coat of oil.
How about the White aviator shirt, olive green pants, hard rank on the epaulets, silver two line name plate, dress shoes, white socks, CAP baseball cap, and ultramarine badges? That may work. Funny, there are tons of possibilities.
Cow costume with a special "udder" sticking out.

Ooh, I see a 2b in the future of that uniform. Disturbing, yet funny.
No, really, that udder is for CHOCOLATE milk.... That's why it's black. That's where you get chocolate milk from.
;D

Duh.... The red udder..... sheesh
You should wear the CAP polo shirt and slacks under your green flight suit.
Or blues, with white tube socks that have been colored black with permanent marker.
I've seen both, unfortunately.

I thought it was more of a pink than red. Guess it depends on the com.
Indians?
This is inappropriate... knock it off.
My apologies to anyone who took offense to my previous statement.
:)
Personally I think you should wear shiny grey BDUs. That's wear you make an entire set of BDUs completely out of Duck Tape. :D
Actually, I think I'll try and make one of those, when I get time from this whole grad school thing that is.

Ultramarine blue name tapes, or a sharpie? ;)

You have to find an Ultramarine Blue Sharpie.

Aww, I was hoping for the standard black sharpie. But since they make then in so many colors now, maybe hot pink? :D
Actually, safety vest orange ;D

I applaud Nomex for wearing a uniform to his squadron meeting tonight.
I guess there are a lot of members of Nomex's squadron who don't care if they are denied coverage in the event they die during the activity.
Pretty sad, really. Wearing civilian clothes during an activity *(unless that's the UOD) sets a bad example for cadets, too.
*Barbeque, bowling night, etc.
THE VOTING HAS CLOSED - THANK YOU ALL FOR SHARING YOUR VOTES!
As the voting indicated, the Hawaiian SHirt, BDU Pants, Sandals and Flight Cap were the leading choice. Unfortunately, I have a freakishly large head and the Hock shop had to backorder my flight cap, so I wasn't able to wear it tonight. I showed up dressed as such but unfortunately no one seemed to notice. I sort of just blended in.
Perhaps if I really want to shock people there I should wear a Class A... if only I knew what that was...

Actually, I am one of the cadets - I am the third youngest member in the squadron at 48. We actually have a founding member and two that have over 50 years.
Does death from natural causes count for coverage?

Yes, wearing the Army Service Dress Uniform would be a shocker. >:D

A cadet is not a new member. A cadet is a member between the ages of 12 and 20. Can I have a little talk with whoever did your Level 1 training? >:D
Just kidding...That's cool that your squadron has a founding member and 2 members with over 50 years.

As far as I know, if the member is wearing a uniform, yes.

I wear only: BDUs, BBDUs and Flightsuits. I not not own nor will I ever own or wear a formal uniform, a service dress uniform or a mess dress uniform. Nor shall I ever wear any of the airline style corporate uniforms. I have my standards.

How about the Burt Reynolds in "Striptease" option: cowboy boots, tightie whities, and a heavy coat of Vaseline.
;D >:D :angel:
Do you know anyone in the SCA?
Plate armor made from blue plastic barrels would be rather unique.
Any authorized uniform with "Spongebob Squarepants" on the nametag/badge.
