That sounds like an outstanding day! Nothing better than being comfortable and doing something you love for extended periods of time.

I'm not so sure of that. This is directly from ar 670-1, 3 Feb 2005. I'm amazed they haven't updated this yet. By the way here it where I pulled this from: Click!!

3–3. Occasions for wear
a. Soldiers may wear BDUs on duty when prescribed by the commander. Soldiers may wear BDUs off post unless
prohibited by the commander. They may not wear BDUs for commercial travel, unless authorized by para 1–10c of this
regulation. Personnel may not wear BDUs in establishments that primarily sell alcohol. If the establishment sells
alcohol and food, soldiers may not wear utility uniforms if their activities in the establishment center on drinking
alcohol only.
b. Utility uniforms are not normally considered appropriate for social or official functions off the installation, such
as memorial services and funerals. These uniforms are issued as utility, field, training, or combat uniforms and are not
intended for wear as all-purpose uniforms when other uniforms are more appropriate.
