Purchasing ABU Uniforms
You will need to order/purchase the following items from Vanguard Military:
Name tapes (Order ASAP since these are custom and take about 2 weeks to ship/arrive.)
Civil Air Patrol tapes:
*I suggest taking tapes to dry cleaners that can do alterations to have them sewn on, unless you have a heavy-duty sewing machine.

(you may want to check Big 5 or Walmart for cheaper options, but make sure they are comfortable because Cadets spend the most time in these.)
Tan belt:
