Sometime, circa 1973, Camp Lejeune, N.C. I have a vague memory of a "Base" directive being released advising the entire Camp Lejeune military population on "Uniform Etiquet" while on leave, stateside, or anytime away from a military oriented cities. IE: Fayetteville(sp?) & Jacksonville, NC were sighted as military oriented cities & NY or Boston as not.

Uniforms were to be worn while on duty, civilian clothes were recommended for all off duty activities.

I don't remember the exact wording except that it did reference the current "anti-war civilian political climate" as being hostile enough to warrant specific notification and a "heads-up" to all armed forces personnel.

Either I'm dreaming and my memory is in dream mode or CMC thought things were exciting enough to warrant a printed directive!

Anyone else remember it? Sometime fall of '73.
