The Officer Recruiter is in...

what is the typical dress for a swearing in; Is it slacks and a button down or jeans polo and loafers? Don't want to be out of place when the commander comes in

I'd go with the former, and maybe even a tie as well. Some people go with a full suit, especially if the family's there to watch. I just did it be myself, and went with slacks and a long-sleeve button down, plus a peacoat (it was upstate New York in the winter).

I would ask your recruiter as to what is protocal at your NRD/location, mine was slacks and collared shirt, but I was at HQ, I do know some OR's in the field would tell guys to show up in whatever.
 
I plan on dressing up just didn't know if it was a general faux pas, which then I wouldn't. Appreciate the feed back.
 
I did not even know that I was going to be sworn in... I was told to come in and sign a few papers. After that was done, my OR was like "ok, you ready to swear in?" I was in a tee, shorts, and gym shoes. It was pretty causal with just me, two OR's, and my processor taking pics on my phone. YMMV
