ALARACT 202/2008 specifies that the 'dress blue ASU' for men includes a 'black bowtie.' It makes no mention of the black four-in-hand necktie in connection with the 'dress blue ASU.' Since, according to paragraph 10 of the same ALARACT and paragraph 27-19a of AR 670-1, the bow tie is worn only after retreat, this text suggests that the 'dress blue ASU' is not conceived of as a uniform order for the daytime, that the 'dress blue ASU' for males is not an all-hours uniform including an evening variant with bow tie, and that the 'class A ASU' is the highest order of dress for daytime wear. After retreat), men may wear a black bow tie rather than a black four-in-hand necktie, and commanders may direct that headgear is not required.
