<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>From your statement, I understand that the chain of command wants the sailor to wear his knee brace underneath his trousers. If the trousers would fit over the knee brace, that might be a viable option. However, it sounds like the chain of command is trying to pretend the sailor does not have a condition which prompted medical authority to order the wearing of the brace. Do they just want everyone to look alike?1SG Charles HunterTue, 12 Feb 2019 12:23:17 -05002019-02-12T12:23:17-05:00Response by SGM Bill Frazer made Feb 12 at 2019 12:39 PM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I though- no regs, but my Ortho that wearing it over clothing defeated the purpose of the brace- cause clothing would cause it to slide around.SGM Bill FrazerTue, 12 Feb 2019 12:39:08 -05002019-02-12T12:39:08-05:002019-02-11T22:13:08-05:00
