When are Soldiers authorized to "cuff" their sleeves?

Soldiers are authorized to "cuff" their sleeves during field training or in a deployed environment as this practice helps adapt to specific operational needs. In these settings, having the sleeves rolled up can enhance comfort, facilitate ventilation, and improve mobility while engaged in physical activities. This flexibility is useful in dynamic environments where practical considerations often take precedence over formal dress codes.

In contrast, cuffing sleeves might not be permitted in more formal contexts, which is why other options do not align with the established regulations. Being mindful of the appropriate context ensures that professionalism is maintained during formal events and that operational readiness remains a priority during training exercises or deployments.
