Uniform wear is a graded item.  Cadets are graded on how they have placed insignia, the cleanliness of the uniform, that they have all proper uniform items, Maintaining bearing and posture, as well as on their grooming standards.  The standards that are graded are given to each Cadet in their Cadet Reference Manual/General Knowledge packet and have been explained in class.
