Flotilla 7-2 Uniform Information

This is a quick reference, detailed uniform regulation information is available here.

When wearing USCG uniforms, Auxiliarists are expected to wear the uniform correctly and in accordance with the USCG Auxiliary Manual (AUXMAN). 

** Do not wear incomplete or incorrect uniforms **

The United States Coast Guard Auxiliary is the civilian, uniformed component of the United States Coast Guard. 

United States Coast Guard Auxiliary uniforms distinguish Auxiliarists from members of other uniformed services and civilian auxiliaries. Auxiliary uniforms are identical to Coast Guard officers' uniforms with the exception that the buttons and stripes on Auxiliary uniform dress jackets and shoulder boards are silver in color, rather than gold, thus the terms "Gold Side" and "Silver Side" to differentiate between the Active Duty/Reserve (AD/R) and Auxiliary Coast Guard components.
