Air Force Making Uniform Changes with Women in Mind, While Space Force Is Working to Fix Those Baggy
Tracy Roan has been busy the last couple of years.
Having served as the chief of the Air Force Uniform Office at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio, since 2018, Roan has helped shape some of the most progressive and drastic clothing changes for the branch, as well as the development of the Space Force's new service dress uniform.
In the past two years alone, airmen have seen once unlikely changes, many of them focused on the comfort of women: longer hairstyles for women, the development of a maternity flight suit and a wrap-style dress for pregnant airmen. The Space Force is even making elements of its new dress uniforms unisex.
The other military branches are following suit with similar uniform and policy changes -- thanks, in part, Roan said, to the research and development the Air Force has done. To her, a lot of the uniform changes just make common sense.
