Wearing a G-1 flight jacket off base?

John,

This has happened in the last 2 or 3 years.

I think it was part of the give and take that allowed us to wear flightsuits
anywhere. Something had to give. Just a guess as most of it never made
sense to me.

(I like the one that allows black shoes to wear brown shoes because the
women complained so much that black shoes didn't go with their khakis.
(PLEASE NOTE - that reason is only rumor. What a world!)

Nomex (green) jacket can only be worn on flight line. You can wear it
coming
on base, or leaving base but can only be "seen" in it on the flight line
and
the O'club. (Or entering and leaving quarters to or from the
flightline.)

That may be written down somewhere, but I never had a problem wearing the
nomex jacket ANYWHERE on base in my entire career ... going back over
thirty
years. That includes the infamous era at Miramar when Field Day Fellows
would post squadron XO's at the main gate to bust anyone wearing their
flight jacket in their car.

These days I wear one anywhere I please.
