NEW STANDARD DRESS CODE FOR FIELD AGENTS OF THE UNITED STATES BORDER PATROL SERVICE

EFFECTIVE FEBUARY 15, 2007
By order of the President of the United States, and the Department of Homeland Security, at the request of our most favored trade partner the nation of Mexico.

All Border Patrol Agents will report to work wearing the new style uniforms beginning February 15th 2007.

It has been brought to the Presidents attention, that the currant style of dress by our border agents, presents an image of intimidation, and racism to the good citizens of Mexico, who frequently cross our nations southern borders to do jobs that Americans won’t do.

We as a kind and compassionate neighbor, to one of our strongest allies in the war on terrorism, have chosen to comply with the request submitted by Vicente Fox at the Texas Summit, that was agreed to, and signed in 2006 at the Crawford Ranch in Texas last Summer.

Furthermore there has been an additional change in the equipment that the Border Patrol Agents, are allowed to carry, while on the job. “Below are two list“ In the first list, are the items that the Border Patrol Agents are required to carry, and in the second is a list of “Unauthorized items that the Agents are strictly forbidden to carry.

A word about the new uniforms, and their design, and style

The office of Home Land Security, chose a style of uniform, that will appear less intimidating, and threatening to our special foreign visitors, and guest.
