Air Force officials announced Jan. 28 the results of the recent Airman Battle Uniform boot wear test. The boot of choice, which includes a rubber-coated toe and heel, is pictured at right. Research began to develop a stain-resistant boot to overcome issues with the current suede sage green boot, pictured at left. The Air Force Uniform Office, part of the Aeronautical Systems Center at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, oversaw the testing. (U.S. Air Force photo/Brad Jessmer)
