Recently we have observed that some members have modified their uniforms with
decorations, symbols, attachments, etc., and others are not in full uniform. While their
intentions are good, the result does not give a professional appearance. True, the
original Battalion did not wear uniforms, but WE DO, to show our appreciation for their
accomplishment and to fulfill prophecy. For any question on how the uniform should look,
please refer to the Organization Manual--this is our Standard--which states, "The
wearing of items described in previous directives and those designated in this Manual are
the only items to be worn. The wearing of other, unauthorized emblems, badges, pins,
insignia, etc., is not permitted." The hat emblem is the bugle, not the crossed
rifles (We were infantry.). As Staff quartermaster, I have been appointed to chair an ad
hoc committee, composed of each company quartermaster (or someone appointed by the C.O.)
to act as a control board for uniforms. Any proposed changes will go through this
committee before going to the National Staff for final approval. Please comply.
