Direct order from CSMs NOT to wear them today. Probably because this run is televised, the uniforms are issued to standard, the PT belts come in all colors.

Reflective belt - " so we can be safe"...we sound like [bleep] Dora at times.
The problem is that if they specified a color, say white reflective belts, the local supply would be wiped out, and we'd be back to the standardization problem again...or less runners.
We digress: Happy Birthday Army!
