Title: New cloth insignia on the CFDU?
Post by: foo on March 11, 2017, 08:54:19 PM
Is the new cloth insignia (silver thread) authorized for the blue flight suit? The ABU announcement only refers to BDUs and the CWU, so I'm thinking no.

The blue flight suit has authorized dark blue with full color insignia since its inception.

Thanks for the confirmation. I was thinking it had to be the one Vanguard sells (https://www.vanguardmil.com/products/cap-first-lieutenant-senior-grade-navy-blue-cloth-insignia) as "insignia for cap CAP flight suit," which has white thread (for the relevant grades) on navy blue. But now that you point it out, I see 39-1 does say full color, so silver it will be for me.
