alwyn2d Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 I may not get a response to this question. Pilots normally don't give a sh t. Does the Major service cap have the farts and darts or is it for Lt Cols and above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chromedome Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 FGOs and above have farts and darts from what I understand. CGOs don't have anything.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orbit Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 I think it used to be only for lt col and up back in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Right Seat Driver Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 I think it used to be only for lt col and up back in the day. AF and Army have been farts and darts for O-4 and above for decades. You just never see AF O-4s wearing wheel caps.Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MooseAg03 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 I had no idea I was supposed to own one until I perused the new 2903 a few weeks ago. I’m sure it’s always said that, but it came as a surprise to me. Still don’t own one...Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skitzo Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 You're maintaining it in the back stock at your local AAFES...just like every other Major... It's my preferred TTPAs a non leadership type person (not a DO or CC) it is not important to have. If you are a DO or CC you should have one. Outside of that the only times I’ve been ordered to wear it no one cared about the head gear it was a sign of respect to those we just lost. Cannon AFB didn’t have enough in stock to supply me but if you would feel remiss not wearing one when you remember your comrades you have lost I would recommend purchasing one.

alwyn2d Posted June 8, 2019 Author Share Posted June 8, 2019 Guardian In the USAF, O-4 thru to O-10 service cap's brim have lightning bolts and clouds. Commonly called farts and darts. You are definitely not a shoe, they are tested on this as Lts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
08Dawg Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 I got one when I pinned on O-4, but I kinda geek out on stuff like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
