In the early 90's, around 1993, there was a class A uniform that was nearly the same as Naval class A's. Same shade of blue, no shoulder rank....piping on the cuff for rank. Was silly, and the officer corps had to pay out of pocket for the uniform change.
In the end, this all slight of hand. As afchic noted, there are tons of issues the USAF leadership has to come to grips with. Seeing a combat wing go uncertified for nuke violations last year is the tip of the iceberg. There was also a senior JAG officer that spent his entire career as a USAF Jag officer with no active license to practice, had been disbarred in Texas in fact.
I do hope the USAF can find reason to return to simpler times. It really is unfortunate to see all this going on, especially with a war to prosecute.
