Looks utter sh1t on a Combat Jacket Lightweight. Even worse if the wearer starts cutting diamonds out of the back to make it hug the body as well.
Re billing.
Just get friendly with the Clothing Storeman, and when you take the next one down make it all nice and folded. Chances are they wont notice and the garment will be in the bin before you know it.
You would be lucky to get away with cut-off sleeves in the RLC actually, but as you mentioned Grantham, your on about TA(?). Cut offs, as others have said was good with KF but looks chipshop!

I've seen the both at Grantham (on both Reg and TA) but also on the WOs course running at JSCSC a couple of years back. Looks toss and they should be charged for a replacement Lightweight combat jacket.

Unless I've been Wah'd, I suppose he's going on about the 'Lightweight Field Jacket' which is what is says on the label inside your shirt.
Agree that it looked good on the old KF, mainly because the massive rolls of woolen material were a right b'stard to iron flat without about a can of starch on each fold. Being a lazy minging cnut back then, I'd go for weeks between washes rather than re-iron the things from scratch until I coughed up and got two tailored.
I've toyed with the idea on CS95, but there's no problem compared with KF.
Also, my Sqn doesn't seem much interested in uniformity of uniform and it seems to be at the whim of the DS whether it's sleeves up or down on any particular day.
