Wrong again. 

I mean, more or less 😅 Simplified for simplicity’s sake. But yes, what I wrote is not the full story, there are many good books that tell it better.

Not even close man.  I suggest you read those books you’re referring to in your post.

How do you input that into it?

I'm using a spreadsheet from a database that contains the recipients, references, and dates and then direct ChatGPT to refer to the database when writing the letters. Getting the instructions/prompt refined to get the output I want is the hard part, I'm just making it up as I go along.

I hear non-coyote brown Friday shirts are soon to be gone via the new uniform reg update.

Yeah but you can wear an OCP patrol cap in your flight suit so it’s fine.

Authorizes Friday morale shirts with logo on the front and back:  This expands the current morale shirt regulation by allowing logos to be worn at a larger diameter on the back of the shirt in addition to having a logo on the left side of the chest not to exceed five inches in diameter. Regardless of the logo, the shirt must be Coyote Brown.

I don’t read that as I can’t have a colored morale shirt in my flight suit. I read that as the Mx or LRS troop can have a Friday shirt in their OCPs with a big logo on the back.

The whole point of the shirt is to stand out. Being all the same color is back to the same bad decision from ten years ago.

Thats all this stupid uniform board is. We convene it every year and every year all they do is circle jerk decisions from 5-10 years ago back into style so that someone else can change it back in 5-10 years. 

If Green bags were still common I guarantee sleeves would have to come back down next year but since that isn't happening my money is that hands wont go in pockets anymore and you can't talk on your cell phone again. This shit is just stupid..... do we really pay people to give us their opinion on what they think looks professional in their completely biased and sheltered opinions?

It doesn't stipulate OCPs, just morale shirts in general.

Much like ATF rulings, it's all up to "interpretation!" 😎

And people bitch about not being allowed to wear beards and "males" wearing earrings...

I'm actually looking forward to the ball cap while wearing the flight suit.

I'm going to bitch about crew neck shirts continuously getting ignored for short sleeve blues. I'm getting tired of the 70's porn stars look. If we can have unruly facial hair why would even try?

Craziest was Altus was allowing the blues cap with the 2 piece circa 2019. Not sure if that’s still the case.

After watching Office Space in 1999, I just wore what I wanted and grew my porn stache out. I got promoted along with everyone else so never did understand the debate.

[skibum]

Also, having sat on lots of promotion boards, I can tell you that uniform wear and facial hair was not what we spent our 6.9 minutes on when deciding your career.

[Pooter]

The only uniform item that I derive any morale from whatsoever is the green bag.  It serves as a daily reminder that I'm better than the nonners and the paper pushers who convene meetings like the one that produced this worthless uniform reg update. 
 

hot take alert: if you wear the two piece flight suit you're a beta cuck flyer who is complicit it the eventual eradication of the green bag. Shame on you and your disrespect for tradition and may god have mercy on your soul

[WheelsOff]

New reg change? Lol. That’s cute. I’m not giving up wearing my colored morale shirt…sorry (but not really). #guardhard #goguard

That's cute.  Be sure to tell the PJ that after he pulls your ass out of some shit hole.  Everyone who's been there knows that the color of the nomex doesn't actually matter so long as it works.  F the nonners.  They play no part in a warrior's self esteem.

Did flying units actually stop wearing colored morale shirts?  

 

I will say, I'm pretty happy about the baseball cap in flight suits change.  Of course the effective date is the same day my participation in the Guard goes nearly to zero as I near retirement.  Thanks for nothing!
