Is it okay to wear the deployment OCP when you've never been deployed?

SPC (Join to see) ok before you come at people check the altarac I wear multicams everyday at my unit almost no one else does.....I was on order in 2012 to deploy it for cancelled I was issued my uniforms and gear had to return the multi helmet cover and armour and the like but have all uniforms and combat tops boots and pants and cold weather gear. Its authorized till 2018 then you have to have the new crap. And also don't be disrepectful to people who are answering your question

Hey guy instead of posting this on a news feed how about you just ask the Sargent him or herself

Oh, the admin police...take down a post. lol.

Multicam is now being issued at BCT/IET. I've had Soldier come back on HRAP and they are wearing them. Plus per AR 670-1 and SUBJ/ALARACT 085/2015 – TRANSITION TO OPERATIONAL CAMOUFLAGE PATTERN ARMY COMBAT UNIFORM (ACU) ENSEMBLE.

Remember, if a Soldier has deployed it is their option to wear the SSI-FWS (if earned by regulation) on the right shoulder. They don't have to wear it.
AR 670-1 -
Chapter 22
Wear of Decorations, Service Medals, Badges, Unit Awards, and Appurtenances
22–1. General
This chapter covers decorations, service medals, badges, unit awards, and appurtenances, both U.S. and foreign, authorized for wear on Army uniforms. The term “award” is an all-inclusive term, covering any decoration, service medal, badge, ribbon, or appurtenance bestowed on an individual or unit. The term “ribbon” is an all-inclusive term covering that portion of the suspension ribbon of a service medal or decoration that is worn instead of the service medal or decoration.
22–2. Authorization
a. Commanders may require the wear of authorized awards on the following occasions:
(1) Parades, reviews, inspections, and funerals.
(2) Ceremonial and social occasions.
b. Unless directed by a commander IAW paragraph 22–2(a), authorized awards are worn at the option of the wearer, when not prohibited, during normal duty hours. Personnel also may wear authorized awards on appropriate uniforms when off duty. Personnel are encouraged to wear authorized awards on the service, dress, and mess uniforms.
c. Soldiers may wear authorized awards on the Class B version of the service uniform during duty hours and when off duty, at their option.

Ok so some people are giving you good advice as far as looking it up and him being within regulation. That being said ignore the negativity and drive on. You did the right thing by asking, just try to find a different way. Like respectfully asking the NCO if it is authorized and I am more than sure if he is a good NCO he will inform you in a way that is just as respectful as the way you present the question to him/her. Good luck in your future with the army and know that all NCOs aren't assholes 24/7. We put our pants on the same way as you

There are some pretty good responses to this...I especially like the flow chart...everyone is authorized to wear them now.

How is this even a discussion? I read through a few of the comments and I only wonder why in gods name would you need to post this kind of idiocy... A five second google for 670-1 and then a three second ctrl+F query for wear of that particular uniform and you would of had your answer... What happened to soldiers educating themselves? Nowadays I guess it is far more satisfying to post on the internet and see if you can get some kind of pat on your back for calling someone out. Well kid, it backfired and now you are the one who looks like a moron... Get off the forums and fb and whatever, pick up some ARs and FMs and learn something...

This has got to be one of the crazier threads I've seen in a minute. Speaking for me as a Soldier, if I had a question, depending on what it was, the first thing I'd be asked is "did you look it up"? If I said no, I'd be sent on my way and told to look it up and get back to him. It teaches you how to be somewhat self proficient in looking up regs and interpreting what they are saying. As I went on up in the years, the questions became less, being I knew within reason where to look, and if it was not clear, I could tell my next higher, this is what I read in AR, FM, DA PAM, MILPER, this is what I take it as, and we'd discuss what it means to both of us. I'm not petty enough to worry about if someone is wearing a uniform without a patch, and if it bothered me enough, 670-1 is everyone favorite reg short of 600-9 or 600-20. FM 22-102 will always be a classic. At your level these are all things you should be getting acquainted with even if your plan it to do your time and bounce. You can rest assured if you ever get the Magic Bullet, you'll be reading your ass off. I also think calling this NCO an E5 is questionable. Yes I've done it, and it wasn't right then. Doesn't give me free run to let you make the same mistake I did. SGM Erik Marquez's flowchart is simple KISS type stuff. Believe it or not, with a few word changes, you could apply it to damn near anything in the Army.
