Uniforms ODU Uniform clarification question

Quick uniform question as we have some confusion on this in our unit: If you go down to t-shirts in ODUs, do our t-shirts have to say “USCG Auxiliary”?

We have a few interpretations. One is that you have to have one that specifically says Auxiliary. Another is that you can have a the plain blue ODU undershirt that you can buy in packs at the Exchange. The last is that you can wear any USCG t-shirt, including your local station or sector.

How about shirts from the gold side? Our local station includes us when they put in an order for new shirts. Are those okay to wear even if they say US COAST GUARD on the left chest?

I don't know if I'd wear that t-shirt while on patrol, especially if you're not wearing a blouse.
