Wearing the New Navy Uniform

Week of August 18, 2008

Sailors transitioning to the new service uniform (SU) can learn about its proper wear at Navy Personnel Command's (NPC) website at npc.navy.mil/channels where a training video is educating the fleet about the Navy's newest uniform. Service uniform sales began recently at Navy Exchange uniform shops in Great Lakes and California. Sailors stationed in these regions may also order the new service uniform by calling the toll-free uniform support line at 1-800-368-4088. Sailors have up to 24 months to purchase the new uniform, depending on their duty station location. The mandatory wear date for all E1-E6 personnel is July 2010.
