Female Air Force Personnel Not to carry cell phones in their right hand

femaleairforce.gif According to Strategy Page The U.S. Air Force recently issued a new set of rules on what fashion statements can, and cannot, be made, one of which is female personnel can not carry a cell phone in the right hand (the one you need for saluting.) Other rules: female personnel can not wear "extreme" nail polish colors, shave all their hair off or wear rings on their thumb.

"The general rule is, whatever you do, don't let anything take attention away from the uniform, and the fact that you are in the military."
