Works for me. Was the blue jumper ever permitted as outer wear with DPM trousers - the Army have gone back to their range of different jerseys it seems.
IIRC the green jumper was an ancil item for DPM and is so permitted in MTP too just not as an outer layer (same as a softie or Norwegian shirt)
RAF - not sure. But when we had DPM (CS95) to loan out we also loaned out the green jumpers and also green shirts. I guess in place of the CS95 combat shirt.
But I think grey/blue jumper with blue shirt & MTP trousers is the way to go, then the PCS shirt for āfull greensā and 3a as it is for public engagement.
Actually no reason the 3a polo canāt be worn in place of the shirt.
I exaggerate, but they are a ācollegeā (run by a private company, but funded by the European Social Fund) who only provide level 2 courses - equivalent to GCSEs.
Their purpose is pretty much to support those who failed the minimum educational requirements to get them, so they can join up - in essence, functional skills training. They do also support those who are unfit to get their fitness to standard.
Theyāre not overall all that bad, and all of their instructors are veterans, but they do attract those who arenāt going to win any quizzes anytime soon.
Anyhow, I digress. Hereās further info if anyone wants to know about them, but we probably should get back on topic: https://mpct.co.uk/
Interesting opinion. It is the wrong one, but its certainly an opinion.
Canāt stand sleeves on my wrist, so the option of being able to wear a shirt rolled up is a win. And before someone says āJuSt weAr ShORt SleEVe.ā Short sleeve shirts are abominable and should have never been invented.
How much do the regulars wear Blues these days? I only ever see pictures of VSOs in No2s occasionally, probably see more photos of all ranks in No 1 dress.
