All, if you are married, do you wear your wedding ring in uniform? If you do, what kind and what are your thoughts on why you chose that type.

I wear my West Point ring with it and got one that matches it somewhat.

However, since it's real fancy, I don't wear it to the field or during Air Ops.

I never take mine off. I cover my ring with tape if I have to.

I wear my traditional ring when stateside, but go without or with a silicone one when deployed.

I Use to ware a wide gold engraved Wedding Ring and my 173d ring except when working with hand tools or around electronics; but Arthritis has swollen my joints to the point that rings don't work any more.

I wore mine unless at sea, on the flight line, or while working on electronics.
I met my wife in the Navy, and in 29 days she will join me in the ranks of the retired.

If I'm going to be in the field or wearing work gloves, then I do not wear my ring.
A friends husband nearly lost is ring finger while putting up a tree stand. He started to fall and caught the ring on the stand trying to catch himself.
There have been a few times that my ring was lost in gloves because it would stick inside the glove as I took them off. I wear tight fitting work gloves for my civilian job, so I do not wear my ring at work either.

I was taught in basic back in 65 NOT to wear rings, something about 21/2 ton tailgate tearing your finger off.
