BDUs are now Obsolete

I'd buy into the crush as long as the requirement was that it be approved for wear only after 50 missions.

Aircrew or GT?

GT has an equivalent, the "Ranger Roll" LOL I have even seen folks Ranger Roll a ball cap!

My Squadron commander heard that Nationals is authorizing ABU's possibly within a year.

Ah the old "heard it from a friend's twice removed's best man six wedding's ago..

"in a year ... " they MIGHT have a meeting about it.

When you have it in the know from people right on this very forum that are actually involved in the *recommendation* only, and that is just on our level. Doesn't matter what we think, it's what they think. Glaciers move faster unless it's a liability. Then we might move a little faster.

  Wow, how old are you and what grade of school have you completed? That is by far the worse example of spelling, grammer, & word usage I have seen except for perhaps the garage sale sign I saw last weekend that read "Groge Sale!"

I doubt it. It seems like the other we was getting into BDUs. I think we should have stayed with the greens or fatigues.

Is this available on eBay?

But seriously would anybody beef me for wearing it?

Back to the original subject of this tread...BDU's.   The Delaware Wing just received 250 BDU sets from the USAF at Dover AFB and the Delaware Air National Guard is giving the Wing another 100 sets.  This is a great plus for our cadets. :clap: :clap: :clap:

Why do people want this? It looks like complete crap. I can understand the whole headset over the cover that lead to the original look, along with the "experience" of many missions, but ultimately? It looks like crap, and I wouldn't want you in a picture as a PAO or someone also in the shot looking like that in it.

[Chief2009]

Yes they would take issue with you wearing that.

Per CAPR 39-1 Table 2-1, Line 12. "Cap will not be crushed"

[Thrashed]

I vote "no hats" of any kind.

Why? Because hats suck, I don't like them. Yes, I am allowed my opinion. Sorry. I wear the stupid service cap at work everyday. I hate it.

We also do not need new uniform choices or changes. Enough is enough!

Sooo...the many CAP members who loathe the current options and the way the CSU was pulled out from under us just have to "suck it up?" Yes, it's called following orders and regulations.

[Thrashed]

But somebody, please, Please, PLEASE get rid of the Realtor jacket (blazer)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, I KNOW it's cheap, especially if you get it at Salvation Army, Goodwill or St. Vince's...but it is very NON-AVIATION.  When I see it, I think of Century 21, RE/MAX, etc (I used to work in the real estate industry).

I would be over the moon to be able to wear something like this:


Airline aircrew uniform jacket, available from Tally-Ho uniforms...and it's available in charcoal grey, to keep the grey zealots appeased!  We wouldn't have to use the sleeve striping, either...the current Realtor jacket nameplate with grade would suffice, but deep-six the pocket protector!!!

And this without the sleeve stripes is different from the current blazer how exactly? The pocket protector is a travesty. The proper way to wear a crest on the blazer is to either sew it on or use a pin on version.

Yea, the airline jacket without stripes is a suit coat. You can get them at JC Pennys. There is nothing military about it except the stripes and the company logo on the buttons.
