AF Transition to OCP Uniform Starts in October

The U.S. Air Force has announced that it will move to a single combat utility uniform, adopting the Operational Camouflage Pattern (OCP). Starting Oct. 1, 2018, Airmen who have serviceable OCPs may wear the uniform, and Airmen can purchase OCPs at Army and Air Force Exchange Services at four locations. These initial locations will allow uniform manufacturers to produce additional stocks for other locations, eventually outfitting the total force in the coming months. The service will fully transition to OCPs by April 1, 2021. The Air Force will also outfit Basic Military Training, Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps, and Officer Training School starting October 1, 2019. For more details, see this KitUp! article.
