Is there an ALRAC message about the OCP? I was told that I am not allowed to wear the OCP t Shirt with the tan boots.

My Chief said that the New T-Shirts can't be worn with the tan boots is this correct? The reg says that you can until the wear out date. Has there been a message that says otherwise?

The way this uniform change is being implemented, with a wear out date of UCP camo 4 years after the introduction date of OCP, allows soldiers to buy the new uniforms with their uniform allowance instead of having to spend their own money on them.

SGT(P) (Join to see) This is sort of like having the right of way when you are in a Prius and contesting with a loaded dump truck. The term is "dead right". Your Chief may be in error on this topic, but proving it directly, even with tact and respect, probably won't help your career. Good luck.
