carried on the cadet’s person. Common sense protection of personal property must prevail.

missing or destroyed items will be noted and that team may be contacted and possibly fined for
the cost of the items.

event. This includes not maintaining an orderly atmosphere in the hallways and in the cafeteria.

trophy will be recalled and re-awarded. Failure to maintain proper decorum may result in
disqualification and forfeiture of awards
3. Squadron and/or Drill Team Commanders are responsible at all times for the conduct of their
personnel, and knowledge of their competition times and drill meet rules. The time to clarify any
uncertainty is at the Commander’s Call.
4. Standard customs and courtesies will be practiced during the drill meet – respect will be afforded
to the colors, officers, enlisted, and all cadets and civilians. Common sense courtesy must
prevail. Render proper courtesy and make way when a team is marching down a hall. In
extremely congested, high-traffic areas, it is not necessary to halt every time an officer passes but
a courteous greeting of the day should be rendered. Loud, uncontrolled, disrespectful cadets,
staff, or visitors will not be tolerated. Violations could result in dismissal from the meet at the
discretion of meet officials.
5. Tobacco products, alcohol, or illegal drugs in any form will not be tolerated in any school

Study Guide for Inspection Team
- The military uniform is the public symbol of the nation’s defense forces
- The military uniform represents a long and honorable tradition of devotion to duty in
the service of one’s country
- The key elements of maintaining a high standard of dress and personal appearance while
wearing the (Air Force) uniform are: neatness, cleanliness, safety, and military image
- The word “uniform” means a distinctive mode of dress
- Cadets are expected to honor the uniform—to wear it properly and with pride
- Air Force Junior ROTC Instruction (AFJROTCI) 36-2001 provides details on fitting
standards and wearing instructions for the uniform and personal grooming requirements
- The cadet is responsible to maintain all uniform items in a clean and orderly condition
during the school year and when he/she turns in the uniform
- The service coat sleeve length should extend one-quarter inch from the heel of the thumb
when the arms are hanging naturally at the side
- The service coat should extend 3 to 3.5 inches below the top of the thigh
- The backs of the trousers or slacks should be seven-eighths inch longer than the front
- Cadets may not wear earphones or headphones while in uniform, unless required for duty
- While in uniform, cadets may wear a wristwatch and no more than three rings at any one
time
- Bracelets may be worn if they are neat and conservative, but must not detract from the
military image and must not be wider than one inch
- Female cadets may wear earrings if the earrings are conservative and kept within sensible
limits. For example, female cadets may wear one small spherical (diamond, gold, white
pearl, or silver) pierced or clip earring on each earlobe
- Eyeglasses must not have any ornaments on the frames or lenses
ATTACHMENT 7 (CONT.)

ornamentation to or through the ear (except females wearing conservative earrings) nose,
tongue, or any exposed body part (including anything that might be visible through the
uniform)
- For female cadets, the hair should be no longer than the bottom of the collar edge at the
back of the neck.
- For female cadets, pins, combs, barrettes, or similar items used in the hair must be plain,
similar in color to the cadet’s hair, and modest in size
- For female cadets, the length of the skirt may not vary beyond the top and bottom of the
kneecap
- For female cadets, hosiery must be worn with the skirt and must be neutral brown, black,
off-black, or a dark blue shade that complements the uniform and your skin tone
- For male cadets, the hair must not contain large amounts of grooming aids such as greasy
creams, oils, and sprays that remain visible in the hair
- For male cadets, the hair should not exceed 1 ¼ inch in bulk regardless of length
- For male cadets, you may not dye your hair an unusual color or one that contrasts with
your natural coloring
- For male cadets, sideburns must be neatly trimmed and tapered in the same manner as the
haircut—sideburns may not extend below the lowest part of the outer ear opening
- AFJROTC (left sleeve) or unit (right sleeve) patches are ½ to 1 inch below shoulder seam
and centered
- Cadet rank insignia on the service coat is placed halfway up the seam, resting on the seam
but not over it. The bottom of the insignia is horizontal with the ground
- Cadet rank insignia on the flight cap is centered top to bottom on the left front of the cap
and 1 ½ inches from the front of the cap
- For male cadets, the Awareness Presentation Team (APT) badge on the service coat is 3
inches below the top of the right welt pocket
