We need a Positive Space Ambassador patch to go along with it.

I call it “the local pub” but whatever works I guess.

Who said anything about being embarrassed.

I can't think of any other reason you'd be opposed to having a unit or RCAF centennial patch on an RCAF uniform.

The patches aren't sponsors, so it's not like NASCAR...

It’s the “I have enough time in to get the old stuff” line of thinking, which kind of falls apart if new folks are also getting issued the old stuff. The current CADPAT fits better and you don’t look like a tied sausage, whether you were thin or not.

Now, I wonder how many RCN folks purposely keep their old NCDs rather than switch to the NECUs.

I honestly regret switching. I liked the look and feel of the old NCD's better. And frankly, the lack of pockets made me feel less stupid about the amount of time it took to check myself over if something went missing.

I bet clothing stores still has old stock if you ask nicely... I go the old jacket in Esquimalt back in March, before switching to NCEU two days later.

My positive space patch idea may not end up as popular as the airforce ball caps but but I should still get a point or two for inclusive behavior.

You need to engage in more self reflection.

silly question. Is the old jacket not still THE jacket? I thought the new thing with all the pockets was a shirt? I kept both of mine because i thought they were going to carry over.

The new shirt is two layers, so there is no jacket. The old system of a t-shirt, shirt, and double layer jacket was overkill... We were trying to make our daily uniform bunker gear.

I worked at an office where the coffee room was the “non-respectful workplace”.

Send me your address and I'll send a CFINTCOM hat to really mess with minds...

Because "run around naked for a few years" was rejected as a CoA.

Clearly the people making those decisions were not from a Scottish regiment.
