(3) How worn.
(a) The black pullover sweater is authorized for wear by all personnel with the class B uniform, and by food service
supervisors with the food service supervisor uniform.
(b) When the black pullover is worn with the long- or short-sleeved AG shade 415 shirts, personnel have the option
of wearing a necktie or necktab. Personnel will wear the collar of the shirts outside the pullover if they do not wear a
necktie or necktab. Personnel may cuff the sleeves of the pullover, but they may not roll or push up the sleeves.
(c) Officers and enlisted personnel in the rank of corporal or higher will wear shoulder marks on the epaulets of the
black pullover. The nameplate is worn centered 1 ⁄4 inch above the bottom of the chest patch, and the distinctive unit
insignia (DUI) is worn centered from left to right and from top to bottom on the chest patch, above the nameplate.
Soldiers not authorized a DUI will wear the regimental distinctive insignia (RDI) instead of a DUI. Chaplains will wear
their branch insignia. Personnel may adjust the placement of the nameplate and DUI or RDI up or down on the patch,
to allow for larger size DUI or RDI, or to adjust to body configuration.
(d) Personnel may wear the black pullover under the black all-weather coat and black windbreaker. When worn
under the windbreaker, the pullover must not be visible below the windbreaker. Personnel may wear the pullover
without insignia when wearing civilian clothes.
