Don't ruin it. I was having fun watching reserve ensigns argue over uniform minutia.

Was gonna say that didn't sound right. When I was buying uniforms, that chapter from the regs was my Bible. Good thing they're really cheap, too. Even a high quality belt off Amazon isn't going to cost you more than $10-15, but the Vanguards at the NEX work well.

Ah, who could forget the mysterious O-1.5's.
If one wishes to avoid spending a small fortune for every single uniform at the outset, this is good to go by. Worry about getting more when necessary. And remember you get a $400 uniform stipend.

I stand corrected. Thank you, sir. Those regs also say 131X and 132X officers are authorized to wear black shoes with their service khakis.
If they have no self respect and can stand the ridicule...I stand corrected. Thank you, sir. Those regs also say 131X and 132X officers are authorized to wear black shoes with their service khakis.
My point exactly
I have a tangential question about the sore subject of socks. The flight suit regs say that socks must be white or green 100% cotton or 100% wool which I assume is for burn prevention in case of cockpit fire. I can't find 100% anything these days besides BS which is in high supply, do you senior winged gentlemen think it's an issue?

Wear whatever socks you like. Nobody cares.
Concur. As a longtime Red Wing wearer, the only time it's a concern is when your maintenance department gets inspected by AIRPAC/AIRLANT. The PRs and AMEs on the AMMTs have a hard on for Red Wings and will hit you if they see aircrew flying in them.
