      RCAC could stand for Royal Canadian Air Cadet but also Royal Canadian Army Cadet. The RCAF doesn’t only stand for the Air Force either. It could also stand for the Royal Canadian Armed Forces.

    A couple of points: 1) The pants are not creased all the way to the top, they are only creased to the top of the *leg*. 2) you don't have enough tilt on the wedge - it's only 2.5 cms over your right eyebrow which is also about 2.5 cms above your right ear. THREE fingers is over 5 cms!

    3 years air cadets and 10 years in the army and I have never seen anyone tie their laces like that. once you are done lacing them up, you put a small bow on top and not a knot that if it tightens you have to dig at it to undo it. you put it in a bow and tuck it inside the top of the boots.
