Sometimes I&#39;m on duty (during the day) when Lodge or Chapter meetings come around, and I have to go straight from work to Lodge or Chapter. As long as I&#39;m not out of uniform, are there any rational reasons why I shouldn&#39;t wear my ASUs? I&#39;d rather not do the ACUs/OCPs.<br /> <br />Note, I just had my two week AT, and actually did wear the ASUs on the days I had Lodge meetings. I wore my jeweled collar and apron over my uniform ONLY in Lodge (I&#39;m Secretary of one Lodge, and Junior Deacon of another). <br /> <br />Also, in two weeks, I&#39;m going to be installed as Worthy Patron of my OES chapter, and that&#39;s on a Saturday evening of Battle Assembly weekend. I&#39;m going to ask the commander if he minds if I show up for Battle Assembly on the Saturday in ASUs, as I won&#39;t have time to change out of ACUs and drive to the installation ceremony.<br /><br />UPDATE: I did wear my ASUs to Battle Assembly last weekend, and then to the Installation of my OES Chapter. I got lots of compliments. People in my Chapter who I never knew previously served approached me and thanked me for wearing my uniform. 2017-02-24T16:55:47-05:00 CW3 Private RallyPoint Member 2370053

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>My fraternal Brother, I don&#39;t see why you would not be able to wear your uniform to lodge (ASU or ACU). Lodge is usually formal, and won&#39;t serve alcohol. <br /><br />Plus, our Brothers will understand if you are in uniform do to work. Every Brother I know would rather have you in lodge in work clothes than you not be in lodge at all.

We look at it as a double brotherhood.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>How about wearing anything over the uniform that&#39;s not authorized by uniform regulation independently of branch of service?
