Thank you for flying US Air… Force?
• The Air Force and CAP dodged a bullet: the infamous “McPeak uniform.” Gen Merrill McPeak was the Air Force Chief of Staff, 1990-94. The uniform was introduced in October 1991, but it was so unpopular it was never fully phased-in. I recommend usafflagranks.com for the full story.
• Only the shiny chrome insignia (wings, badges, etc.) remained from General McPeak’s uniform.
• CAP phased in chromed insignia around 1994, and officially phased out oxidized insignia in 1996.
