<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>What does your NCO chain say? Are they getting yelled at by members of your unit or by others on post? There should be either a unit or post policy on authorized face masks.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Most units have set policy up to the Post/Base by now. This should be a non issue. Ask your command what the policy is.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Sure, your M40 Mask is 100% authorized to wear in uniform.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>To sum it up: neutral earth colors, OCP, and neck gaiters.<br />Not authorized: scarves, cut up t shirts, brightly colored masks, masks with any writing or pictures on them.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Great question, I was wondering the same.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>We got two of the new Multicam cloth masks issued last week. I still (when required) wear my woodland camo commercial mask with filter and vents, as it allows me to inhale and exhale more freely.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Go go the store and buy a few simple black or dark blue cloth masks, make it so you can hand wash them. Problem solved. I’m sure that don&#39;t want masks with clown faces on them, or mustaches etc. Keep it simple and dull in color, or go ask your Company Gunny, or 1st Sgt.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>While there is no regulation covering this, you should observe what most others are wearing and wear the same. If you are really in doubt - ask you First Sergeant for guidance.
