If you really want to know how to wear a uniform, just join up and you'll learn quick fast and in a hurry how to wear that uniform

[@kahoaliiaiu7130]

Are you allowed to put your state ID card in your pockets when wearing the OCP and are you allowed to wear like a Black G-shock watch

[@Tacticalpancake42]

@@kahoaliiaiu7130 you keep your ID in your wallet, or in your left breast pocket, as far as the watch, if your in like an admin position maybe, i never wore one in the field

[@Sheahova]

exactly you gonna get good at wearing your uniform XD

[@LTSRIDE24]

@@kahoaliiaiu7130 of course! I would strongly suggest wearing a watch and a cheap digital one from Target would be ideal. At times, you will not be allowed to wear a smart watch, so that's why I'd suggest a cheap digital watch from Target.
Matter of fact, some are issued a watch.
Also, if memory serves me correctly, you're allowed to wear up to (2) rings.
When in doubt, follow up with your Command tho!

Unless you're doing an inter-service transfer and don't have a clue

[@michaelnolan6054]

OK, now the uniform is on. Now carry this extra 120lbs of stuff plus your rifle and chase those dudes carrying nothing and wearing no uniform.

You can’t read ?..

@@lastnamefirstname7950 why do you say that?

[@jayanderson9068]

How come I notice some ocp coats have the slanted chest pockets on each side and others are straight across . What is what ?

[@desireechoate7583]

Usually winters OCPs are slanted pockets. Summers don’t have chest pockets and older style combat uniforms have straight pockets

[@jayanderson9068]

And all 3 are approved to wear ?

[@jayanderson9068]

I seen slant chest pockets on a guy today at my shop . I work across from a base . His was hot weather jacket coat shirt blouse whatever it’s called

[@desireechoate7583]

@@jayanderson9068 Yes and no.
Older style is outdated so def. can’t wear those no more. Summers are fairly new and unless you’re a fresh recruit most of us don’t have them. So for the most part it’s optional if you wear summer or winter/regular. In TRADOC setting rules are much stricter and you’re required to wear exactly what your leader is wearing. (The only way you can identify someone is wearing summers without touching the fabric is the placement of the pockets.)

Everyone with stolen valor in mind are going to study this shit

[@avggymbro3734]

I will wear this uniform in my country because I admire US Army so much

[@Jorge1012army]

Was it to hard to learn it instead of reading it ?

[@DangerousDaedric]

The coat looks alittle to big🤷🏼

[@MrStaybrown]

Way big..most wear it too tight.

[@americaman6587]

What do you wear under the uniform tho

[@desireechoate7583]

Underwear and a green shirt

[@TheJrj430]

GeeZe. Iron that shit

[@raizen21ss56]

Imagine being this guy and having to scratch your nose

BEST WAY TO WEAR UNIFORM!!
DON'T

[@thantzweaung9080]

So, I (somebody from the other side of the planet) just learnt that US of A got manuals on how to wear clothes (& not ceremonial attire). That's the definition of 'Mur'ca.

[@xXSgtWolfXx]

Uhh, it's a uniform... There's regulations on how to wear it properly... Guess common sense isn't so common.

[@desireechoate7583]

And we do have special uniforms just for ceremonial occasions with their own set of regulations

[@thantzweaung9080]

@@desireechoate7583 So does everybody. Some even have different types of ceremonial dress uniforms.

[@desireechoate7583]

@@thantzweaung9080 we have different branches. So different uniform for different branches. Also depending on rank the uniform could look a little different. There are also different style of uniforms being worn right now. Some that are spin offs from old generation uniforms.

[@msain427]

Why does anybody need to know this unless they're in the military and they would already know..

[@charliekoiet2633]

ROTC cadets who are learning, not everyone can understand the 60 something pages of regulations

[@gagetighe5904]

I’m in national guard and was issued ocps but wasn’t told how to wear it

[@lauritorni4879]

Michael Sain Many reasons

[@coleyoung7650]

if you don't need to know, or already know, then don't watch it

[@jeanm1170]

Because many of them are Soo dumb
