Hands in the pocket. It's there actually policy, regulation, or other means of controlling this. Or is this just some salty 1sg, CSM, OR SFC. Saying back in my day....

What? You don't have AR 670-1 memorized? Thought that was required for the E5 board! 8)

"No hands in pockets" has been part of the Army's uniform regulation during my entire career and I assume long before that as well (would have to pull out prior uniform regulations to check)

Have you already looked up the order pertaining to the proper wear and use of the Uniform?

AR 670-1. 3-6, A (4). Page 15.

It clearly states:
“4) While in uniform, personnel will not place their hands in their pockets, except momentarily to place or retrieve objects”

You need to know this stuff. Every branch has a similair order stating similair requirements. It took me 5 minutes to find it
