As a Wg Chief, all you see are the packages that are pushed up by Groups and Squadrons. Regardless, the problem with anecdotal evidence is that it's only true in cases that you've witnessed. You'd more likely hear it phrased as "not dedicated enough", or "unprofessional", or "hasn't bought in to the AF culture". If those people are in your chain of command, unfortunately you're left with two options - make the sacrifice and spend the money, or accept that it may hinder your advancement while they're still there. but pretending like those people don't exist, or that their opinion doesn't matter, isn't going to help. Personally, I think those who make judgment based on whether you have a Mess Dress have their priorities pretty screwed up. That's just reality, and denying reality does no one any favors. I'm not saying it's right, but there are people in leadership positions all over the AF that will absolutely look down on you for wearing Semi-formal to something like the AF Ball, or SNCO Induction or whatever. It's almost impossible to make Senior without a Strat, and it's impossible to get a strat if your Wg/CC or CCC think you're a dirtbag. As a SNCO that cares about their own career, "what others might think" is an absolutely valid concern.
