ANSWERS TO INDUSTRY QUESTIONS:

1) Is there a button hole template for the shirt?

Answer: The new placquet pattern has buttonhole placement.

2) Is there a designated width for the opening of the concealed pencil pocket on shirt?

Answer: No

3) What is the finished flap length and width dimension on shirt?

Answer: Use pattern dimensions

4) Do you want the zippers to be cam lock or semi-lock? Our supplier advised it should be semi-lock.

Answer: Cam lock or semi-lock

5) Can you provide an NSN for the shirt and trouser?

Answer: No

6) Amendment 0002 is changing the slide fastener as follows:

"7) Can you send me the slide fastener sizes for the USCG Trouser?

Answer: Spec page 5, paragraph 3.6.3, line 1, delete [Type I, style 1, cam lock, size LM] and/or substitute with the following: [Type I, style 4, automatic lock, size 3-4]. (An amendment to the specification is forthcoming)."

We have already received the slide fasteners for the PDM's per the original spec. Can we use these as a deviation for the PDM's only? We can go ahead and order the new zipper but these usually take a long time if they are not currently in stock.

Answer: Yes, the original slide fastener can be used on PDM.

Answer: The width is from the placquet edge to the end of the buttonhole and 6" in length.

“shall be an embroidered Coast Guard shield centered on the cargo pocket flaps.”

Please confirm that the embroidery is on both flaps.

Answer: Yes, embroidered shield on both cargo pocket flaps.

10) Could you please clarify the hook & loop issue? Our supplier says type I is woven, not extruded.

Answer: CDTO will investigate.
