1.
YOUR UNIFORM
IS TO BE WORN WITH PRIDE. IT IS THE UNIFORM OF THE
GREATEST NAVY THE WORLD HAS EVER KNOWN. WHEN IN
UNIFORM, YOUR ACTIONS REFLECT UPON YOURSELF, YOUR
UNIT, AND THE UNITED STATES NAVY. IF YOU CANNOT WEAR
THE UNIFORM PROPERLY OR CONDUCT YOURSELF IN AN
APPROPRIATE MANNER WHILE IN UNIFORM, DO NOT WEAR
IT AT ALL. 2. All cadets are subject to
the Uniform Regulations in the Cadet Field Manual.
3. You will be expected to wear your uniform once
a week (normally on Thursday). The following applies
to the issue, wear, and responsibility for the
NJROTC uniforms:
a. Uniform Issue:
Cadets
will be loaned, without charge, all uniform articles
except underclothing, stockings, and name tag. You
will be issued a clean uniform; you are expected to
maintain a clean uniform; and you will be expected
to turn in a clean uniform. Each cadet will sign an
issue form upon receipt of uniform articles. Ensure
that this form is an accurate inventory of what you
actually have; it will be kept on file by the Cadet
Supply Officer and you will be responsible for all
items (or the cost of same) issued to you.
b. Proper Wear:
• Always wear a
complete uniform.
• Uniform will be worn the
entire day. Cadets may remove the uniform for
classes which would soil the uniform (i.e. shop,
P.E.).
• Covers will not be worn while in
school except for NJROTC personnel inspection and
drill activities.
• You may not wear a civilian
jacket with the uniform at any time.
• You may
wear the Utility Jacket with civilian clothing. This
is the only uniform item that can be worn with
civilian clothing.
• All buttons must be
fastened properly.
• No articles such as
pencils, combs, buttons shall be exposed when in
uniform. Jewelry, watches, rings, earrings,
hairstyles, and haircuts shall conform to those
specified in the cadet field manual.
• Female
cadets are authorized to purchase black, low heel
"pump" style shoes for wear with the uniform. Shoes
shall be plain toe with no bows, buckles, etc.
•
Some Lee activities request/require members wear
special attire to participate in a particular
activity. If your participation in such an event
conflicts with wearing of the NJROTC uniform, inform
your instructors beforehand. We will make exceptions
on a case-by-case basis.
• The Dress Blue Coat
may be removed while indoors. Keep hands out of your
pockets and do not chew gum when in
uniform.
IF YOU ARE ABSENT FROM SCHOOL ON
UNIFORM DAY, YOU MUST WEAR THE UNIFORM ON THE NEXT
DAY YOU ARE IN SCHOOL UNLESS OTHER ARRANGEMENTS HAVE
BEEN MADE.
