Title: Flight Cap for Senior Member NCO's
Post by: pdjd7428 on November 03, 2007, 06:55:31 PM
I can't find the regulation covering which flight cap that Senior NCO's can wear. Do we wear the non-braid or the silver braid flight cap.

Quote from: CAPM 39-1 Figure 2-26.2. Flight Cap: Senior members wear small double clutch back senior member cap device. Cadet NCOs
and airmen wear the cadet enlisted double clutch back cap device. Cadet officers wear miniature or
regular size metal grade insignia on the flight cap. Cap will not be crushed. Senior member officer
flight cap has silver and blue braid. All others wear flight cap with solid blue braid.

Emphasis added.

It's the same for Senior Members With Out Grade, the standard Issue Flight cap.

We will have to revive the now-dead enlisted senior member saucer cap device, too.

Most AF enlised can go their entire career without a Service Cap.

Just say "no" to bus driver hats...

The senior enlisted device for the service hat has always been available from several sources. But probably not The Hock or Vanguard. I ordred one about a year ago (can't remember the source) and it arrived in about a week. Meaning it was a stock item.

I've actually got a couple of those somewhere. It looks to be pretty much the flight cap device with a ring around it. The eagle is exactly the same size.
