AF reflective belts draw jeers on Facebook
Posted : Monday Nov 2, 2009 11:50:33 EST
Thousands of Facebook users have joined a group called “I Hate Reflective Belts” to protest and mock an Air Force requirement that airmen wear reflective belts during hours of darkness. Air Force Times reporter Michelle Tan has more details on our FlightLines blog, as well as a couple of amusing photos from the site.
What do you think about the service’s use of reflective belts? Is this a silly regulation that goes too far, or do the belts serve a purpose? E-mail your opinions to tspoth@airforcetimes.com.
