Spoo Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 (edited) EASYCOM will still be rocking the blues. Funny anecdote: About six months ago the CDR decides he likes the AF's blues monday idea, so he adopts the policy. Now everybody (Army, Navy, etc.) is wearing the "Class B" on Mondays because of us. So, what do we do? Turn around and shitcan the policy. Absolute poetry. No wonder the other services can barely hide their contempt. Irony can be pretty ironic sometimes... Edited for coherence.

CalvinandHobbes Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 My blues pants button kept getting more and more desperate with each week that passed. Just when I had no hope left...! -my ANAM test results were WAY high after hearing this news. The battle of the bulge can now be fought by velcro alone! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scudrunner12 Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 ...no more blues on Wednesday Thankfully I only wore blues on Mondays... but I know what you mean. Any other UPT bases axe blues? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TechForce Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Any other UPT bases axe blues? Laughlin just got rid of 'em. First hand account of the commander saying, "Well I was going to get rid of them if we had a unanimous vote." One person out of the auditorium voted to keep them... but yes they are gone! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTB Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Announced at the staff meeting this week is Vance will be keeping blues on Monday, at least for now. WTFO? Why are 'leaders' doing this? That's a flyer deciding on his own that Blues Monday still makes sense. That's just weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzz Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Because at Vance any on flying status didn't have to wear blues, so basically once you started UPT till the time you PCS'd the only time your blues saw sunlight was if you screwed up or graduation day. New OG/CC took over and decided if you weren't scheduled to fly you were in blues about 2 months ago. Guess they have to make up for the years that they had it good.

brewskis Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 He's shielded the flying squadrons from base-wide uniform shenanigans in November. He definately earned some points in my book for that. FWIW, I've never worn blues as a student or an instructor at Vance, and only recently did anyone come down really hard on Friday patches, morale patches, etc. The last crop of wing leadership was a good bunch, IMO.
