1.  The Service Dress Blue (Alpha) uniform was discontinued as a Coast Guard
uniform several years ago.

to discontinue its use within the Auxiliary, and the Chief Director has
approved this National Board action.  Accordingly, the Service Dress Blue
(Alpha) uniform is no longer authorized as an Auxiliary uniform.

3.  This change will be included in the next update to the Coast Guard
Auxiliary Manual.
