I am Army National Guard in Iraq but most of my genetics is Marine Corps. My father was Pre Nam era Corps and My great Uncle was a WWII Raider. Army made the right offer at the right time so I went that route and have fought it out with family since 1988. |

More than likely it was me that kicked ya out of the E club on Kadena I was a SP there from Mar 89-Mar 92 on Kadena and broke up quite a few fights and such when the club was overloaded with horny jarheads hitting on skanky AF babes  Oh and for the record it was not camp Kadena but Kadena Air Base

On a serious note (not sure if its a repost, or what sparked this thread). Here is the new uniform, for real. It looks like crap in pics, but much better in person, its actually very light, almost the same shade as ACUs in person. I wish we would just issue ACUs instead, they are a decent looking very functional uniform, and we won't have to worry about anyone stepping on our blue suede boots.

Want to bet ya will be starching them
When the AF 1st went to BDU's they said no starch, but within a couple months that went away & they were starched like crazzy. I was actually the 1st person to wear BDU's in the old school ALS on Offutt AFB & they had no idea how to inspect them other than looking for ropes

The only way to avoid that would be to make fabric that self destructs when an iron is applied, and that wouldn't work too well in the dryer.  I know its going to happen though. The Chief I saw wearing them (USAF Academy CCMSgt) said he had to iron his stripes once so they would have a crease to match the one in the sleeves (permanent). He said other than that they came straight out of the dryer and on the hanger, and his looked really good. I hope they make ironing them specifically prohibited in the new AFI 36-2903, that way I can give paperwork to the first eager beaver overachiever that wants to starch the damn things.

I've seen the new uniform in person too and I won't really mind wearing this one. It is a lot better than the first ghey blue version. This newer style looks and kind of feels like summer weight BDUs. It is not much of a change over what the old BDUs are like except for a retro Vietnam tigerstripe pattern and almost spot on ACU colors. I like the boots too because there will be no more shining boots. Shined shoes are a must for a dress uniform but in a work uniform it is just a waste of time IMHO.
I'll buy the new uniform the day it comes out. I have already decided to never buy another pair of BDUs.

From 78-88 at every state side base I was at, Kelly AFB, Grand Forks AFB, Ellsworth AFB, The flight line look like a ghost town on the weekend except for the Security, totally differant Over seas, most of the whole base was 24/7 Osan AB, Kunsan AB, Clark AB. Its seems when On a state side base they were more into politics and bullshit than performing the "mission" Like what goes on at a over seas location. |

Depends on the MAJCOM and mission. In strat airlift (Travis, March, McChord, McGuire, Charleston, etc.) we fly all day, every day. We NEVER and I mean never shut down the flightline, its open all day every day. That means we are always there too. I know fighter guys (ACC) have down days, family days, goal days, safety days, etc. etc. etc. I used to be in ACC, and it was great at home station, you just worked your ass off when TDY or deployed. Trust me, I miss ACC. ETA: Not to mention, the world has changed drastically since 1988, the AF has been at a continual state of war since 1990, with NO breaks. Even when the USMC and Army were training stateside we were in the Balkans, and the desert (we never left after GWI) fighting Clintoons and GWBI's wars. I've deployed at least once every single year of my career but one. |

gunny, if that was actually functional it would be pretty cool! it probably WILL be the uniform of the future...interanl climate control, day/night/thermal/huds visor system, internal fire team/squad/plt commo system, hard body armor, etc. i bet we see it in our lifetime!

I wonder how long it will take the USAF to pass that one down (if they ever do) to those of us in their Auxiliary (Civil Air Patrol). I can't wait to see how we would bastardize it with our gaudy full color patches, nametapes, and grade insignia.

Civil air patrol, is that anything to do with the USAF???? I see em strutting around base in "uinform" but they never do anything. However, I did stumble on a CAP Major yelling at one of my A1C's for not saluting him Needless to say I went ape shit on that "major" and I doubt he ever pulled that power hungry trick again. |

They used to give us crap about going to the Chili's they built on Kadena while I was there. Its okay though, when I was doing gate guard duty, I used to show the AF guys to the USMC recruiting office on Camp Foster.

Kadena 89-92 we had 72 F15's, C130's, F4's, AWACS, RC-135's, KC-135's and they almost never ever flew on weekends or even came in to work. Not to mention on Fridays ya almost never saw anybody on the flightline except Fire and the SP's.
Go to a ICBM base, see how dead things are on a Friday, 3 day weekends are the norm & if ya wanted/needed to get work done on a Friday you were SOL and had to come in on you're break/down time to take care of things cuz they were off and could not be bopthered to take care of ya. From what I saw in 20 years of being a USAF troop, the majority of AF members work office hours and lazzy ones at that. Hell, deployed to Saudi and elsewhere it seemed only the flyboys & support worked when flying missions and everybody else was only open 3-4 hours a day except for cops, fire and cooks who never got a day off or when they did it was only here and there instead of all the time. INHO the AF is more a blue suited company than a military, but what do I know, I was just a SP troop. |

Kadena got a Chili's Like they needed it with all the yum yum shops out Gate 2  We always got buses full of Jarheads going on Kadena to hit the chow hall cuz they said the USMC chow halls sucked dog chit. For DS/DS-1 we got dozens of 747's full of Jarhead reserves & it got so bad with them flooding Kadena chow hall for midrats the cooks started handing out MRE's to everybody but on duty USAF troops
