OFFICE OF INSIGNIA, UNIFORMS, AND AWARDS
The Office of Insignia, Uniforms, and Awards was, by direction
of the Chairman, delegated the administration of approved policies and
regulations on insignia, uniforms, and awards, and is to be maintained as
a general service for the benefit of the entire organization. 1
Within this authority, the Office maintains a codified record
of all policy decisions, regulations, and instructions on the form and
use of insignia, uniforms, and awards, and provides information concern-
ing them to all Services and Offices. On inquiry or on its own initiative
the Office interprets and applies regulations and instructions on eligibil-
ity for and the use of all insignia, uniforms, and awards and recommends
changes in policy or in rules and procedures governing their use. The
Office, upon request, reviews and discusses all suggestions for changes
in regulations or instructions, or for the adoption or discontinuance or
modification of insignia, uniforms, and awards, and recommends appropriate
action thereon; suggests procedures or other means for controlling or
correcting reported misuse of insignia or uniforms; and handles all inquiries
concerning them received from persons or agencies outside of the organ-
ization. The Office directs the development of samples or reproductions
of designs, styles, or format of insignia, uniforms, and awards; approves
all requisitions for the procurement thereof; and issues from time to
time, as necessary, specific regulations affecting their approval, pro-
curement, issuance, and use.
