Though regulations state no hands in your pockets in uniform, what are your thoughts on those who hold their belt buckle or waistline?

I use to have to ball my hands up into a fist which some seen as an aggressive stance! But most realized my way after talking to me to keep hands out of pockets! But I finally got use to keeping hands out of pockets, so all was good!

It does tend to make you look slouchy. That could be one thing. The other is in an emergency situation, having your hands in your pocket may delay your reaction time. I still catch myself not carrying anything in my right hand outdoors.

Anytime someone was caught, NCO would remind him/her this isn’t the Air Force. Haha!

Hands in pockets is sloppy and distracts from a property military appearance. The hand-on-buckle is equally unsat.
