You maybe correct. It's been a few years. I'm sure I could go check out the
online uniform regs (or someone else could). Also, another post here
mentioned the transition from CNT to a poly/wool fabric.

However, like you I agree, I believe the old khaki jacket, long sleeve shirt
and tie combo was sharp and wish it were part of the chief and officer
uniform.

Just a little nit: isn't that last uniform called Service Khaki (or
Working
Khaki if it's sans ribbons) rather than Service Dress Khaki? I thought
Service Dress Khaki was the old khaki jacket with long-sleeve khaki shirt
and tie. That was a sharp uniform; it's a shame it was lost in the press
to
reduce uniform counts.
