With Veterans Day happening tomorrow, my children’s school is having a parade. I’ve been out since 2018 and I’d like to participate. However, what is the acceptable apparel? I don’t fit into my dress uniform but I have some jackets that still fit. What is appropriate to wear if you walk in a parade. Don’t really want to buy a new uniform. TIA.

I wouldn’t wear a uniform. Get a moto jacket and a hero hat.

What branch were you? I’m sure there are applicable regulations on the wear of uniform by former members.

For the Army, you can only do it at events of a military or veteran nature and if you’re retired or if you served in a war and received an honorable (or under honorable conditions) discharge. And you’re limited to the service or dress uniform, so no PT or utility uniforms.

I’m sure there’s a comparable AF regulation to AR670-1 that should tell you what’s acceptable.
