Dunno if this is up here yet but the memorial service has been scheduled for Monday. Fyi.

Does anyone know the uniform?

Does anyone know the uniform?

Per the base PAO's email:
"Uniform for military participants will be Service Dress Blues/Service Dress Alphas or equivalent. All others, uniform of the day and civilian business attire."
and the Commodore's Secretary's email:
"Uniform for participants will be Service Dress Blues/Service Dress Alphas or equivalent. All others, uniform of the day, and civilian attire."

In other words, I'd go with khakis/chucks and change back into the bag back at the squadron afterwards. Hope that helps.

Word from our CDO was Service Alphas for Marines which is a bit higher than the official word. Can't think of a more apt occasion for breaking out the coat and tie even if not participating in the memorial.

SCW-1 is sending an E-6B with 23 folks on it from the Commodore on down.

I've got a flight and probably won't be able to make it, but if I was to sneak in the back (Time permitting) in my flightsuit would I get some dirty looks?

if it says SDBs, I'd assume the safest bet would be SDBs... that's what I went in for the other IP lost in the last T-34 at his memorial at NASNI.
