No 2C

 

This is the uniform we wear most of the time, also called "dark blues" or "working blue" as the shirt is a dark blue and is labelled as a "shirt, working".

Most parade nights are spent in this uniform.  A set of coveralls (overalls by another name) are issued to protect the uniform during mucky activities and also when gliding.

On the training programme it will be referred to as No2C.
