CAPM 3901 page 34 Fig 2-19 note 8 says we can wear a Red and yellow command scarf. Can someone tell me what this looks like (emblem?) and where I can get it?

Vangaurd. If I remember correctly it's yellow with little red tri-props. I'd say save your $30 for something else.

Ditto.

Don't buy it: people will point at you and laugh.

Carrie, No! They're all gonna laugh at you! ...THEY'RE ALL GONNA LAUGH AT YOU!  ;D

Who'd want to wear a yellow scarf with red chicken feet all over it?  Seriously.

I wouldn't be so sure...I checked Vanguard and, I don't know about you, but I think
looks pretty sexy to me.

Go figure: Vanguard stocks 'distinctive yellow scarves' but they don't sell BDU caps.

**AND, they actually have a picture of it, rather than the standard "picture not available" sign.....

Where do you find them on vanguard? I can't find them. I want to make a fashion statement: the green flight suit, the pluto patch and the command scarf.

Many of the AF Squadron Scarfs are rather unattractive. Aircrew take a perverse pride in this.

The CAP red and yellow is undoubtedly because CAP planes in WWII were always painted these colors.

Yes I have one, It looks really good with the Blue Flight suit, it is used to keep you neck from getting chapped and rubbed raw. I know most of you never have a mission that is more than 30 minutes, but here in CAWNG it takes four hours to get to Northern CA, than fly for four days 5 hours per day, wish I had an "Official yellow silk undie,  BUT!!! it( Scarf I mean) is too short I cant reach the wind screen to rub off the oil,

I think it should have been White with the CAP emblem on it. As a tool, I have used it to choke out the PIC when he starts to fly irratic, could't find anything in the reg that says I can't . .  it is convenient!! And It is an 'Official Scarf"

Does anyone actually have a picture of this thing?  It has been authorized for a while now and CAPMART, then Vanguard have never released its image for us to see.  I am starting to think they don't REALLY exist.

If I remember correctly, the yellow background is the same color as the CAC cord.  Then there are small 3/4 in red tri-blade props all over it in a pattern.

I've never seen anyone wear it.  Anyone ever seen it?

Ok, so here is a link to a power point presentation that has a drawing of it.  The drawing is very accurate in terms of color, size, and pattern of the scarf.  It's on slide 25.

Yeah, a B-1 guy in my old squadron got it and wore it with his CAP flight suit. Made him look like a dork.
