so I have searched AR670-1 for the answer and all I keep getting is that its mos specific but doesn't list which mos. Does anyone know which mos are allowed to where the foliage green t-shirts? thanks in advance.

The only uniform I am aware of that you can wear that t-shirt with is the Flight Suit. But perhaps the crewmember suits the tankers wear as well. It is a part of a set of flame retardant wear so it would be more about what duties you're performing I think. For example, just because you're an aviator doesn't mean you're authorized to wear a flight suit if you're not going to perform flight duties. Maybe someone else knows of other uniforms besides the flight suit that this shirt is authorized with?

I always thought personnel who work with fuel or other POLs were the only ones authorized. But I see it being worn often by random MOSs.

The foliage green 100 percent cotton t-shirt is only authorized for wear by Soldiers who perform jobs with flame risk or hazardous materials. An ALARACT came out which made an amendment of AR 670-1, dated Nov 2011. The authorization extends to those outside flight or fuel MOS's during tours in applicable regions. The ALARACT was rescinded and should have been incorporated in the newest AR.
