These changes are among the first initiatives being rolled out as a result of Task Force Uniform. The Uniform Regulation changes were made based on fleet input from interviews with Sailors, command site visits, comprehensive research and data collected from a Navywide uniform survey. The survey collected feedback from more than 40,000 Sailors throughThe approved changes include women's skirts, identification badges, civilian bags, women’s handbags, communication devices and breast insignia.
One of the changes effective immediately will be the authorized wear of civilian bags while in uniform. This includes briefcases, gym bags, backpacks, suitcases and garment bags. The specific guidance on wear and appearance for each is outlined in NAVADMIN 209/04.
Another revision that is effective immediately is the wear of a wireless communication device, such as a cell phone, PDA or pager for official business, while in uniform. The device cannot be visible from the front, and must be worn on the belt, aft of the right or left elbow. Specific guidance and further details on the proper wearing and use of these devices is contained in NAVADMIN 209/04.
Female Sailors may now wear civilian handbags while in uniform, but must meet the specific criteria and be worn in the manner prescribed in NAVADMIN
