Wearing BDU (Battle Dress Uniform) in public, is it permitted?
Written by Josh on August 8, 2009 – 10:16 am -
Well, to my country, soldiers often seen carrying their BDU 's even they' King at public places, not in duty. You can see them wait for the bus, just walking around the neighborhood, well, things like that, to take their BDU. No, they 're not carrying any weapon (except the bayonet). And people seem not feel threatened by their surroundings. I just curious, as a period for example in the U.S.? Does the U.S. soldiers allowed to roam outside their BDU to bring down? Sorry for grammar zoppa. Well, just a child 's curiosity, I think. You know, in my country, the military worked closely with civil aviation. Most of the housing complex, there are a, well, you can call a military outpost. So ago with my housing complex. It 's commpn in my country. And actually, behind my right there is some kind military installation … maybe a construction guidance of the training, I think. So when I went to my right, the soldiers often see in their BDU and sometimes also has entered into my school, just for Chit-chat with security. So, you see, we see the soldiers very often. In contrast, everyone knows that, (correggalo if wrong), the United States there are 'Fort' concept, which the military installation is completely separate with the calendar year. So I wonder if the U.S. soldier can roam around with their ACU of BDU /.

Have changed. I ACU 's time (the army uniform of combat), though hours were not supposed to carry them when they were not in service. It happens to the recruiters or reservists who range from their home duty station stop and get gas or something. But were not supposed a.

For a while ', we were allowed to do interbase on our way home from work, while in BDUs, but is discouraged and I think that the Marine Corps has recently banned entirely.

ACU bring good now, but yes. the uniform duty is to most places. except in places that sell alcohol. so no bars. However, the old regs say that you can make a stop on the way home. but now the soldiers are just everywhere in them. The bus, airplane, the mall, grocery.

It depends on the service. To the members of the American army is allowed lead, but the naval infantry are not allowed to bring their BDUs anywhere outside the base - it 's our uniform killing. Not sure about the other classes though.

The foot soldiers of the U.S. Navy do not wear BDU 's in public, except average their home and their base if they live outside the base. The rest of wear BDU 'service; s in public because they are bad and undisciplined.

It isn 't allowed to bring the dress battle with the rank, insignia' if anything that identify the individual as being in service or on active service. To bring the uniform without the articles mentioned, is not in itself illegal or against the UCMJ, considérant that these articles can be bought on line by someone.

The national protection yet approved for the BDU uniform until the supply of the ACU does not take the needs. (My drive protection just received their second half of the four units authorized last month) soldiers are authorized to carry out dall'alberino uniform, but not while doing anything that might reflect badly on the forces of carrying USA. (ie BEvents alcohol in a public institution.)

BDUs is unitl authorized on April 30 2008 for the army. Until then vederete most of the ACUS and take a lead from BDUs. Porto once a week in BDUs "consumili from wear-out date." The soldiers of Genrally carry them only to and from work, but are allowed to carry them in public, yes. The ACU / BDU is a uniform practice and is suitable for use at the grocery, at lunch on the way home, the mall with your kids to buy a pair of shoes on the way home from work, etc … Maybe just lunch break with a spouse or friend before going back to work. Soldiers aren 't allowed to take the uniform very dirty as this must change (and shower) before going into town. The uniform of the army is something to be proud of! and we don 't hide the fact that we are SOLDIERS! The only prohibition in the regs is that the soldiers can not bring their uniform in places where drinking is out of the post-primary activety (no uniform bars), or in restaurants where the soldiers were mainly drinking alcohol ( as the bar in Chili 'so TGI Friday). Moreover, local commanders can limit the post-dell'fuori wear uniforms for a specific reason (such as protection of force during the high FP).
