i know its out there, but i cant find it anywhere.. does anyone have the link to the CATO or the QR&O stating that CIC officers can wear the highland uniform? ive looked all over and cant find it someone help please

was white shirt and bow tie not the mess dress all along?

This is a great site showing all units that are out there, history and much more.  i came across it and thought i would share it with you. hope you like it http://www.armycadethistory.com
