December 6, 201212 yr 4 AF/CC said no more blues on Monday; I haven't seen anything directly from AFRC. The reservists I knew all collectively ignored Blues Monday since it's creation.
December 6, 201212 yr The reservists I knew all collectively ignored Blues Monday since it's creation. Yeah, the email was merely a formality. When it got sent out, everyone at my squadron looked quizzically at their computer monitors and simultaneously echoed, "We were supposed to be wearing blues on Monday?"
December 6, 201212 yr Any word on PACAF? Can't imagine a more sadistic insult to injury to all the Yokota, Misawa and Kadena guys right now than retaining blues Monday.
December 6, 201212 yr Any word on PACAF? Can't imagine a more sadistic insult to injury to all the Yokota, Misawa and Kadena guys right now than retaining blues Monday. I heard it was Blues 24/7.
December 6, 201212 yr I'm living with opposite ends of the spectrum. My Guard unit just sent the word that our blues can go back into the back of the closet. Meanwhile, AETC/Goodfellow have announced that we will continue doing what we are doing until we get clearer direction. As if the Chief of Staff was vague...
December 6, 201212 yr Well, it is the intel schoolhouse...I'm sure they'll need time to interpret it.
December 6, 201212 yr Well, it is the intel schoolhouse...I'm sure they'll need time to interpret it. Probably wasn't presented in a 69 slide brief and/or hasn't been reported in commercial news, so they're not sure about its classification.
December 6, 201212 yr I'm living with opposite ends of the spectrum. My Guard unit just sent the word that our blues can go back into the back of the closet. Meanwhile, AETC/Goodfellow have announced that we will continue doing what we are doing until we get clearer direction. As if the Chief of Staff was vague... I don't understand. Previous CSAF implemented a policy. Current CSAF says he has no such policy but leaves it up to Wing Commanders to deal with it as they see fit. Until they address it, no policy exists. Unless wing commanders proactively implement a policy, I think you're legal to wear whatever the fook you want.
December 6, 201212 yr The response to the blues Monday question was crafted before the man took the office. And it looks like it was designed as a test...a test of leadership to the MAJCOM CCs and on down. I think it was to see how they lead and who has any balls. Out
December 6, 201212 yr From the 97th AMW FB page. Altus AFB -- 97 Air Mobility Wing 22 hours ago The 97th Air Mobility Wing and Altus AFB currently plans no change to policy regarding the wear of the service uniform on Mondays (Blues Mondays). Repeat: There is no planned change to Blues Monday. Everybody is already way too happy there (I mean what's a better assignment right? MAYBE Hickam) so they figured they needed to take you all down a notch. Dude, I am so glad I let that fucking place! You getting paroled any time soon?
December 6, 201212 yr Any word on PACAF? Can't imagine a more sadistic insult to injury to all the Yokota, Misawa and Kadena guys right now than retaining blues Monday. MAJCOM = no blues and because of the time difference we knew before we went home on Friday. Wings = their own discretion...unknown if some Wing CCs chose to stick with it.
December 6, 201212 yr Everybody is already way too happy there (I mean what's a better assignment right? MAYBE Hickam) so they figured they needed to take you all down a notch. Dude, I am so glad I let that ######ing place! You getting paroled any time soon? PCS in June back to Fairchild, looking forward to it.
December 6, 201212 yr I'll get the email from my buddy tomorrow (he's out today).......... The original came from Gen Wolfenbarger's exec and was sent out to the respective commanders/directors here at WP..... Source confirmed, the word is finally getting out to the rest of AFMC.
December 6, 201212 yr AETC will be keeping blues Monday per commanders briefing this morning. I haven't seen an actual policy letter.
December 6, 201212 yr AETC will be keeping blues Monday per commanders briefing this morning. I haven't seen an actual policy letter. What commanders (e.g, Sq/CC briefing the squadron, AETC/CC briefing Wg/CCs)? This is completely different than what our Wg/CC was told last week.
December 7, 201212 yr I'm guessing there's no chance of getting rid of blues mondays at SOS is there...
December 7, 201212 yr I'm guessing there's no chance of getting rid of blues mondays at SOS is there... Sure there is: mosey on down to clothing sales and get yourself an AFRC patch for your bag. Works like a charm.
December 7, 201212 yr AFGSC has decided to keep blues Mondays Ina completely unrelated news story, Minot's simulators have extended their hours to keep up with Monday demand...
December 8, 201212 yr AFGSC has decided to keep blues Mondays It's good to see that some are not content with the minimum...
December 8, 201212 yr AFGSC has decided to keep blues Mondays Ina completely unrelated news story, Minot's simulators have extended their hours to keep up with Monday demand... Why am I not surprised...
December 10, 201212 yr Any word on PACAF? Can't imagine a more sadistic insult to injury to all the Yokota, Misawa and Kadena guys right now than retaining blues Monday. PACAF punted the decision to the NAF/CCs and WG/CCs. I can say that Yokota is blues free though. (at least until someone busts the curfew)
