Uniform pieces to be returned or exchanged must be returned in exceptionally clean condition. Unwashed or stained items will not be accepted for exchange. All cadets should be washing their uniforms on a regular basis to ensure that they are kept in excellent condition. Also, please ensure that you do not take another cadet's parka, gloves, or headdress. All articles of clothing should be labelled appropriately to avoid this issue.
