Upon reflection, I realized that you're also correct with USCG. It turns out that when PHS officers are assigned/detailed to USCG, we wear the USCG uniform (again, with minor changes to buttons, insignia, etc.).

That's right - it's also why you'll see an "Admiral" walking around sometimes with a full beard and non-military haircut.

LOL, that's actually changed -- we just updated our grooming standards to be in line with the Navy. Hence, no more beards and long hair.
