What I found in AR 670-1 in Section 1-6(b): &quot;No item governed by this regulation will be altered in any way that changes the basic design, or the intended concept of fit, as described in AR 700–84, including plating, smoothing, or removing detailed features of metal items, or otherwise altering the color or appearance&quot; Response by MSG Private RallyPoint Member made Mar 16 at 2022 2:09 PM 2022-03-16T14:09:00-04:00 2022-03-16T14:09:00-04:00 SSG Laurie Mullen 7576729 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Keep in mind that those uniforms are designed to be used in combat. While you may not be using that pocket now, it could change in the future.

If it is field equipment, then you damn well better a normal set for inspections.
