For anyone interested in the sport of Xtreme Accuracy in their fic, take a look here to see precise US Air Force appearance regulations. Jack may be in trouble: on the first page of Chapter 1, under Individuals' Responsibilities: "Members will not stand or walk with hands in pockets of any uniform combination, other than to insert or remove items."
Oh, and for the men's mess dress uniform, "Blue satin bow tie is mandatory." I have a mental image of the sort of outfits that small boys are forced to wear to weddings. :D
But apparently "wear of the Polyester-Double Knit Service Dress Jacket" has been revised out of the document.
Ah, uniforms: good for a laugh.

Sam's in trouble, too, apparently. Cosmetics (W) will not be "worn in field conditions." Heh.
Argh, I'm such a geek. Glad I'm not the only one.
Although I may well have missed the appropriate paragraph.
I'm still working out the kinks of having to use US spelling in my fics - goddamn it, it just looks wrong
However I will admit to looking up BDUs to find out exactly what they look like :P
At least, I think I use British spellings - my writing has become so mid-Atlantic that I can't remember what's correct... Worrying.
(I looked up formal dress first. It's fun! It's like Sam and Jack are real people! *g*)
