Title: Nametags
Post by: gallagheria on July 07, 2007, 07:35:34 PM
What are the different nametags worn with the different uniforms? I have seen about four or five different ones. Please clarify color and what actually goes on each one. Wish CAP was a simple as Army--one ugly nametag for every uniform.

Thanks.

Cadets: three-line blue nametag
Seniors: three-line gray nametag (except on Blue Corporate - aka TPU - uniform)
Seniors wearing Corporate Blue Uniform: two-line blue nametag

Senior Members wearing AF-style Service Dress: silver metallic nametag
Senior Members wearing Corporate Service dress: silver metallic nametag with 'CIVIL AIR PATROL' and last name.

Blazer nametag: last name, wing/region affiliation and CAP crest.

Three-line nametag:

CIVIL AIR PATROL
UNITED STATES AIR FORCE AUXILIARY
LASTNAME

Two line nametag:

CIVIL AIR PATROL
LASTNAME

Confusing enough for ya?  One of these days they'll stop the insanity... but I wouldn't hold my breath! ;D

Actually, the two-line nametags--both the blue plastic and silver metallic--are now:

U.S. CIVIL AIR PATROL
LASTNAME

They'll hafta pry my original two-line nametag from my cold, dead fingers... or when I feel like changing 'em. But not before 2010!  ;D

I'm just gonna wait for the next national commander to reverse the policy.  That, or they can buy me a new one.
