MSGID/GENADMIN/CNO WASHINGTON DC/N1/AUG// RTTUZYUW RHSSXYZ0001 2420946-UUUUвЂ“RHSSSUU Finally, one change implemented by this NAVADMIN that will affect all Sailors is that the blue fleece liner in the APECS parka can now be worn as a stand alone outer garment. The Navy is really worked up over which way the eagle faces. SEABEEs will still be allowed to embroider their logo on the pocket. Sorry JB, but security forces will continue to wear the NWU Type I unless assigned to NSW. Naval personnel performing duties outside the wire in deployed environments will continue to wear a mish-mash of FR clothing articles from a variety of sources. It gives them almost a year to decide what to do. I think the NAVADMIN is vague for a reason. What is unclear is whether they will use the NWU Type II, continue wear of the Desert CUU, or get an entirely new hybrid uniform in the cut of the NWU but with the 3-color desert camo pattern. Non-NSW units with an operational requirement for Desert uniforms after June of next year will have to ask the CNO permission. The wearout date for both the Woodland and Desert CUUs will be 1 June, 2012. This includes Coast Guard personnel assigned or attached to NSW. Only those assigned to NSW or working in direct support if them will be authorized the NWU Type II. The Type III will replace the current Woodland CUU for everyone and serve as the standard garrison uniform. At one point in the message it is referred to as a вЂњGoretex Parka.вЂќ It will likely be in the current APECS cut but we have not seen any examples yet in either camo pattern. Yes, there will reportedly be a вЂњwaterproof, breathableвЂќ parka offered in the new patterns. The basis of issue will be 3 blouses, 3 trousers, 2 eight point covers, 1 Goretex Parka, 1 fleece, 1 helmet cover, 1 sun hat, brown fleece watch cap, and brown belt. NWU Type II and II are organizational clothing. The uniform style is a compromise between a combat and garrison style. The only difference between Type II and III is pattern and not the style of uniform.

These were developed for Naval Special Warfare by USSOCOM and have been referred to as AOR 1 and 2 respectively but will incorporate the NavyвЂ™s unique Anchor, Constitution, and Eagle (ACE) into the design in a similar fashion to how the Marine Corps has included the EGA in MARPAT. The NWU Type II is DIGITAL DESERT and the NWU Type III is a DIGITAL WOODLAND pattern.

The big hiccup in full implementation has been wear guidance from the Chief of Naval Operations and he issued it yesterday in NAVADMIN 259/11.

WeвЂ™ve written a couple of articles about the development and fielding of the Navy Working Uniform Type II and III designed to replace the Woodland and Desert Combat Utility Uniforms for Sailors who require them.
