* NonuniformUniform: Is effectively the only guy in his squadron still wearing the woodland-pattern Battle Dress Uniform, while everybody else has switched to the new "Digital Tigerstripe" Airman Battle Uniform (the Air Force has been transitioning between the two uniforms since 2007). He has actually acquired a full set of the newer uniform, but for various reasons, prefers to wear the older one (at least until they are officially removed from service in October).
