our clothing may be ” uniform ” but as we all know qualifactions are not the same. i believe you
should be able to wear them, and hope they manufacture the approriate items for your uniform

I understand your use of the ellipsis, at the end of your sentence, to express your disgust at that sailor's lack of attention to detail. I just thought you might like to know when using the ellipsis it is only proper to put a SPACE in-between each PERIOD. As so, “. . .” .Otherwise it just looks like you put 3 periods at the end of your own sentence which suggests that you too, Matt Edens, failed to pay attention to detail.

Ahh the buisness of the Navy. By making a 9 inch boot only the one authorized to wear is a monopoloy at best. No other boot manufactuer makes steel toed 9 inch boots other that Bellvue and Bates. Two of the crappiest boots avvailable

No, the name-tape on the pants is not optional. It must to attached in the same manner as the NWU blouse. Also be aware that the buttons on the NWU's (trousers and blouse) have a factory defect which makes them fall-off or break. The newest NWUs (available at the NEX) have fixed this error. I suggest buying multiple sewing kits (also available at the NEX) just-in-case.

Time for a new update of this page. There have been lots of changes to the wearing of the NWU since this was posted for those that are searching for accurate info.
