Measure body length from the high point of the shoulder beside the neck to the bottom hem.
Chest width is half the garment circumference. Doubling it gives the measurement around the garment, not a recommended body chest size.
Chest-width manufacturing tolerance: ±0.5 inch.

Unit History & Information
On August 26, 2024, a CH-47 Chinook associated with the 82nd Combat Aviation Brigade drew attention when it flew from Wilmington to Fayetteville, North Carolina, using the call sign FUKIRAN. Flight-tracking accounts circulated the name online. An Army spokesman confirmed that a helicopter recently returned from deployment had used the moniker, while describing it as unauthorized and inconsistent with the division’s standards. This design recalls that particular episode in airborne aviation culture; the call sign was not an officially adopted brigade designation.
