>CH 5 2. Utility Uniforms. The Marine Corps issues the utility uniform to
all enlisted Navy personnel assigned to Marine units. The utility uniform,
when it is issued by and at the expense of the Marine Corps, shall be worn in
accordance with the provisions of this manual. There are two utility
uniforms, as described by paragraph 2005. The camouflage utility uniform is
a standard uniform authorized by the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Marine Corps, but
the Navy issues it only to Sailors in certain specialties. The combat
utility uniform is unique to the Marine Corps and may only be worn by Sailors
when they are serving with Marine Corps units. When the combat utility
uniform is worn by Sailors, it is a Marine Corps uniform and will be worn per
Marine Corps regulations, except as detailed below. MARADMIN 322/05
>CH 5 a. Officers. Navy officers do not receive a uniform allowance and
therefore will not be mandated to wear the utility uniform, but they may

utilities are worn, Navy officers may elect to abide by either Navy uniform
regulations or Marine Corps regulations, as described by this manual.
However, while serving with the Marine Corps, embroidered insignia will not
be worn on the camouflage utility uniform, regardless of whether Navy or
Marine Corps regulations are being followed. When combat utilities are worn,
Navy officers will abide by Marine Corps uniform and grooming regulations, as
outlined below.
