Sir,
I approached my chain of command about the buttons when I received my initial issue, and I was told I could not. Maybe this situation was one in which it would have been better to beg forgiveness than ask permission. As far as the "cat eyes", we are supposed to have those sewn on our assault packs now instead of our patrol caps, but we are National Guard RSTA and not Rangers, so they may still be able to do that. Back when I was active duty as an 11B1P, we were required to have the "cat eyes" on our PC's. But that was a long, long time ago.
Thank you for the suggestions, sir.
