Air base visit & Cadet uniform.

[Balmoral Green]

I guess this is the right forum?

Myself & BG junior are going to RAF Wittering for their families open day, there will be flying displays and all sorts of other cool stuff going on. We will be there with the Bentley Drivers Club and will be displaying our cars as some added interest for everyone.

Now, BG junior is in the ATC, and I have suggested that maybe he would come along in his smart blues uniform. But the idea of this has sent him into a teenage fit of embarrassed self consciousness, and he says absolutely not!

I thought it would be cool for him to be 'part of the gang' as it were, but maybe I am wrong and he should go in civvies.

Would anyone with any knowledge of the correct dress protocol like to comment? It would be appreciated.

Thanks.
