A new (old) uniform topic!  Great!

No. More. Uniform. Changes.

If a uniform must be changed, it should be for a reason, such as availability (BDU going away), safety, etc.

And I would streamline that even further.

Not unless the item becomes not available, or cost prohibitive.

The first couple are kinda cool, the rest have superfluous insignia.

Cloth nameplates can be kinda spendy though, I've seen them as high as $20 per piece. Optional? Fine. Mandatory? No way.

Good points all.  Especially the ones about financial restraints.

Perhaps in a better time?

* mynetdude sighs,

I think... you should LAY OFF nobody wants anymore uniform changes, they just want a BETTER EFFECTIVE uniform (if we already have it).

Just some ideas. 
(A picture with lots of colorful designs on it, basically)

Nothing more than that.  I say again:

A picture with lots of colorful designs on it.
(And nothing more)

Sheesh...  ::)

Well, they are colorful.  I guess that we can just leave it here for archeologists to try to figure out some day.  They will be puzzled by our mysterious organizational culture.

First and foremost - wearing the cloth ASNP is OPTIONAL. The black leather would remain authorized.

Apply some rhyme and reason:

Each region is assigned a border color
Each wing within that region is assigned the background color

National gets the gold border.

Say RMR gets silver.
CO gets red background
UT gets green
WY gets black
MT gets blue
ID gets yellow

etc.

Just a few...



You're trying to do too much with this... no need to put too much on these tags.

Mine's just a simple ultramarine blue with silver border and wings, and my name underneath. No need to put grade or "CAP" on it, since the patch and rank are already within 14 inches of it. No need for all the embellishment, especially when some of the detail would not be reproducible anyway.


CAP since 1984: Lt Col; former C/Lt Col; MO, MRO, MS, IO; former sq CC/CD/PA; group, wing, region PA, natl cmte mbr, nat'l staff member.
REAL LIFE: Working journalist in SPG, DTW (News), SRQ, PIT (Trib), 2D1, WVI, W22; editor, desk chief, designer, photog, columnist, reporter, graphics guy, visual editor, but not all at once. Now a communications manager for an international multisport venue.

The members can't come to a consensus, so what does it matter?

Refresh me here. Which garment are CAP members allowed to wear this on? I thought these were AF only?

Take your pick:

ASNP   Aircrew Style Name Patch (USAF Pilot, Navigator, and ABM Name Patch)

ASNP   Abstract Syntax Notation Production
