Just glancing at the "Summary of Changes" .... pages 1 and 2 ... it doesn't appear to be many revisions at all.

Quote from: undefinedChapter 11. Removes the height limitation for ribbons and badges on the service uniforms.

Honestly, this is the item that makes me the happiest about this latest revision; cloth rank and name tags on the flight suit and tan t-shirts with nearly every utility uniform are nothing compared to this in my book.

That summary might not show *all* the changes.

The last page contains a number of sunset dates, some of which are new.

After I just got my ultra-thins built with "some" to keep me under the limit. :)

Still have the wrong color for the FDU, should be sage, not olive drab; oh well, maybe next time they'll get that right.

Also, the CWU (polo) is again listed as being equivalent to the AF-style service uniforms. So the polo really is the only uniform many senior members need, practically speaking.

It's now a "regulation" instead of a "manual".

Might have found a typo...  Bottom of page 127 (Attachment 4), regarding the Model Rocketry Patch.  The table lists "L/P" for ABU and BDU but "L/RP" for Corporate Field Uniform. 

Previous version stated "L/RP" for the Model Rocketry Patch on BDUs.

Since "L/P" isn't in the abbreviations key, was the intent to be "LP" for left pocket or "L/RP" for either left or right pocket?

The paragraph numbering in Chapter 4 is all messed up.

4.1.6 should be 4.1.5.3
4.1.7 should be 4.1.6
4.1.8 should be 4.1.6.3
4.1.9 should be 4.1.7

There are other inconsistencies.

Quote10.3.1. Cadet Model Rocketry Badge. Authorized to be worn by cadets when awarded by the unit commander in accordance with the requirements of CAPR 50-20, CAP Model Rocketry Program.
CAPR 50-20 has been rescinded.

Finally!

I'm just glad I don't have to reference an improper document for guidance anymore!

I am, however, a bit bummed that they still haven't added a standard for color guard
uniforms.  As well as the restriction that remains on the beret.

But that's alright, I can survive without either.
