On the ODU's, the Manual states that only the embroidered Coxsawin device is authorized. Will this open up so that I may wear my Auxiliary (embroidered) Aircrew wings? (I am not CX qualified).

Currently, The policy in the AUXMAN chapter 10 is accurate. Only the Coxswain device is authorized. CG -5421 is currently working on new uniform specifications for other embroidered insignia. Once those are completed, one such embroidered device will be authorized in accordance with ALCOAST 427/07.
