FWIW, I'm not sure what you need 3 sets of khakis for. I have two sets, but honestly the second set hasn't been worn yet (and that's after 12 years and 3 mobilizations.) I suppose if you eat ribs for lunch every day you could conceivably need 3 sets, but it would seem to me to be a waste of $$. Same thing for NWUs - I still don't own a set, and have no plans to buy any until I end up in a unit that says they're mandatory *and* makes me actually wear them. If I were just entering the Reserves as a DIRCOM today, I would buy again what I first bought: two sets of khakis and one of SDBs. Everything else, I would wait until someone told me I needed them for a particular reason. (like going to DCO School in the summertime and needing summer whites for an inspection). Otherwise, don't shell out multiple 4-figures for gear that in all likelihood will remain on hangars in your closet. When the need arises, the Navy Uniform Store on-line can get you things lickety-split. Just a technique item...
