My son told me the issue was not brought up at the last meeting of the Uniform Board. Seems there is a lot of objections seeing that they officially adopted the ASU...Army Standard Uniform, which allows the dress blues to be worn without the jacket. Different trousers and my son it wasn't cheap to convert. I guessing the modified ASU is much like our Class B's with the Class A trousers with the green shirt, tie and rank denoted with the epaulets.
