bronxbomber252 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 COMACC issued a supporting policy when the AF policy came out. Don't know about any other MAJCOM. So until that is rescinded, it's technically still a problem in ACC. Figured I had to be missing something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stract Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 (edited) -----Original Message----- From: ACC/CC Commander Sent: Friday, November 30, 2012 5:13 PM To: A bunch of WG/CCs and other staffers Subject: ACC Uniform Guidance Commanders, As you have all heard by now, CSAF does not intend to reissue the policy mandating the wear of Blues on Mondays. Effective immediately, uniform wear in ACC units will be at the discretion of Wing Commanders. NAFs and other staffs may set uniform policy for their respective headquarters. At Headquarters ACC uniform wear will be commensurate with the expected duty that day. For example, if in the performance of your duties you interact with counterparts who normally wear business suits or business smart you will wear Blues. Otherwise, ABUs or flight suits will be the normal duty uniform. As always, Commanders and supervisors should ensure that our Airmen present a professional image and possess/maintain properly fitting uniforms. If you have any questions on this guidance please contact the ACC Director of Staff at ...

Guest Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 As always, Commanders and supervisors should ensure that our Airmen present a professional image and possess/maintain properly fitting uniforms. That sentence needed to be in there? Is this the patches and T-shirts are still a no-go qualifier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lj35driver Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 (edited) Got to work this morning and found the Chucktown standard still in effect. There was an email sent not by either of the WG/CCs, but by Public Affairs stating that we are to continue to wear blues because there hasn't been an official rescindence of policy issued.

BQZip01 Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 AETC = No policy change yet. Standard. Give them 6-9 weeks to form a committee that will make a recommendation to form an approval committee to release a recommendation to the AETC/CC in 6-9 months...it will sit in his exec's inbox for an additional 6-9 weeks and be denied due to improper memo formatting... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sky_king Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 So if the policy letters expire after a certain amount of time, that means that Blues Monday actually expired a few years ago. I believe a certain Lt Colonel owes me an apology for wearing a flight suit a couple months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Texan Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Altus isn't changing. I think that goes for AETC as a whole. Here at Pcola, word from a staff meeting was ' to not get our hopes up.'

Word at Little Rock is the decision has already been delegated by AETC/CC to WG/CCs in verbal guidance over the phone, but the word didn't get out until after COB on Friday. Next Monday should be no blues unless your WG/CC decides on extra flair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
