Or is this just some salty 1sg, CSM, OR SFC. Saying back in my day....What regulation covers having your hands in your pockets?2022-12-17T15:06:05-05:00SSG(P) Private RallyPoint Member8033889<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Hands in the pocket.

I just looked a 670-1 (version Jan 2021) and didn't find anything that explicitly gives guidance on hands in pockets. Internet stuff I found says inclement weather is OK but I didn't see that in 670-1. 670-1 prevails. <br /><br />Now, where I think a CSM is going to get you if you push back on him is <br />1) I didn't find anything supporting hands in pockets is OK<br />2) There are regulation gloves that are authorized if warmth is your concern<br />3) What I found over and over and over and over again in 670-1 is that pockets will be closed at all times, and it was repeated for every single permutation of uniform when it covered pockets.Response by CPT Private RallyPoint Member made Dec 17 at 2022 3:27 PM2022-12-17T15:27:51-05:002022-12-17T15:27:51-05:00COL Randall C.8033923<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>What? You don't have AR 670-1 memorized? Thought that was required for the E5 board! 8)<br /><br />"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)Response by COL Randall C. made Dec 17 at 2022 3:35 PM2022-12-17T15:35:26-05:002022-12-17T15:35:26-05:001SG Private RallyPoint Member8034153<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I am floored.Response by 1SG Private RallyPoint Member made Dec 17 at 2022 5:54 PM2022-12-17T17:54:06-05:002022-12-17T17:54:06-05:00CSM Darieus ZaGara8034267<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>WHAT?Response by CSM Darieus ZaGara made Dec 17 at 2022 7:01 PM2022-12-17T19:01:41-05:002022-12-17T19:01:41-05:00SSgt Christophe Murphy8034666<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Have you already looked up the order pertaining to the proper wear and use of the Uniform?<br /><br />AR 670-1. 3-6, A (4). Page 15. <br /><br />It clearly states:<br />“4) While in uniform, personnel will not place their hands in their pockets, except momentarily to place or retrieve objects”<br /><br />You need to know this stuff. Every branch has a similair order stating similair requirements. It took me 5 minutes to find itResponse by SSgt Christophe Murphy made Dec 18 at 2022 1:32 AM2022-12-18T01:32:54-05:002022-12-18T01:32:54-05:002022-12-17T15:06:05-05:00
