I know of military women who work around a lot of men and come to work (during work hours while on duty) with s**y or revealing clothes on. I know there has to be a standard for military. If men came to work with there pants sagging I am sure that would be inappropriate as well. Is there a military standard or is it up to each squadron?

  1. there is a reg for the uniform..the only time i have ever seen a woman in anything other than a uniform while at work was when we were overseas and the clothing store did not have any maternity uniforms to fit her when they came in she was in them...but she wore appropriate clothing for her job...


  2. There is a standard. Which is AR 670-1 Wear and Appearance of Army Uniforms and Insignia.  But that doesn't cover civilian clothing. I'm not sure why someone would be at work while in civilian clothing.  But as far as wearing s**y or revealing clothing, in civilians, that really falls on the leaders around her at the time.  Its really there call.  The men do have the right to report sexual harassment for it, but wont, we all know why.  But as long as she is not in the workplace she can wear whatever she wants.

  3. Civilian clothing should match the Class C uniforms as to appearance, assuming you are in a unit that for some reason allows or requires civilian clothing.  

    Skirt with blouse.   Slacks with blouse.   b*****s do not show.   No visible tattoos.  etc.


  4. Something like this is a Leader's call.  Our unit has a dress code for civilian clothes day...if it's something you would wear to the club or even think about wearing to the club, you might not want to wear it to work.  You also must be willing to get dirty in your clothes as well.  Bottom line...it's gotta be tasteful clothing.

    Believe it or not, tight and revealing clothes or even men wearing Playboy hats or shirts can be subject to complaint under EO.  Why??  It's is an indirect and non-verbal form of sexual harassment.

  5. Why are these people not in uniform?  It is the military!  Did you know the military actually has a regulation stipulating that females must wear bras?  I actually knew someone who got chewed out by the commanding officer because she didn't have one on while in civilian clothing and off duty. Moreover she was so flat chested she almost looked like a guy.

  6. AR 670-1 is the wear and appearance of military issued clothing fro the army. Military should be in uniform at all times while on duty unless other wise authorized. If other attire is authorized then it is subject to the units SOP and the discretion of the chain of command. If neither of those address the issue then it is an EO complaint.
