What do I wear over the blues uniform instead of a service coat.

^I recently began wearing the service dress and let me tell you, I had the darnest time finding a matching shade for my trousers and coat. I think finding the matching shade should be strictly followed because you can definitely tell the difference between two different shades.

Are you wearing the old-style or new style coat?

If its the 3-button new-style, then its just a matter of buying Shade 1620 trousers, but if its the old-style 4-pocket, you're going to have to be wearing used pants along with the jacket, because no one is making those anymore, are they?

New.

If its a new jacket, then you'd simply have to buy 1620 pants - the FCU provides 1625's, so if you were digging through a unit stash or something similar, that was probably why you had problems.

You can read minds.

Thanks to Always Ready for pointing out what i was trying to get at by asking what was wrong with the service coat. 

No problem...sometimes these guys give Cadet Williams a hard time so I figured I would clarify everything so that everyone understood.
