Uniforms

William D. Cole, MSgt, USAF ret.

Chocolate Chip: Issued in late 1986 or early 1987. I was assigned to the 3rd Combat Communications Group at Tinker AFB, Oklahoma. During my time at Tinker 1986-88 the Air Force switched back and forth several times between the Aircrew type name patch and the normal sewed on name, US Air Force, rank and other patches. We only wore the desert camo for VIPs visiting the 3rd CCG or if you were deployed to the Middle East. Also during this time frame the 3rd Combat Communications Group switch to 3rd Information Systems Group and back again I think at least 7-8 times the Air Force could not make up its mind on anything the Air Crew patches where authorized until 1989 or so.

DCU, Desert Camouflage Uniform, Issued in 2000, I was assigned to the 610th Security Forces Squadron, NAS JRB Fort Worth. I wore this uniform as a SSgt, TSgt and as a MSgt on deployments to the 332nd Air Expeditionary Group at Al Jaber, Kuwait in support of operations in the Southern No-Fly Zone in 2000, 2001 and Southern No-Fly Zone/ Enduring Freedom in 2001-2002. And with the 447th Air Expeditionary Group Camp Sather, Baghdad International Airport, Baghdad, Iraq, 2004-2005
