The tuck-in rule sucks. My unit PT is pretty intense; shirts are always coming untracked. Thanks to the new rules, we have to ensure the craptastic mandatory PT “uniform” remains professional looking...which means we have to spend precious workout time tucking in the damn shirt...But I’m not too sure spending half the workout with my hands in my pants is very professional looking either..

Tucked into what?

Nowhere in the official message (post #17) does it say you can't wear your underwear outside your shorts.

I'm going to start wearing shirt garters to ensure my PT shirt stays tucked into my PT shorts...

Thank PACAF? Or thank former PACAF commander now vice CSAF Gen Chandler? I had a feeling he'd be taking his PACAF ideas with him for everyone else to "enjoy."

I love jacking up people for uniform violations and I get a real sense of accomplishment if I can at least get them teary eyed. It's really hard to get a steady stream of tears....unless it's a Lt.

Just wait until they force us to start wearing the PT hat, with rank attached!
