00:00.009 --> 00:02.120
Morning marines and sailors . My name

00:02.120 --> 00:04.176
is Sergeant Major Gato Second Combat

00:04.176 --> 00:06.120
Readiness regiment . The season of

00:06.120 --> 00:08.065
uniform changes upon us and Sunday

00:08.065 --> 00:10.009
morning , our uniform and we'll go

00:10.009 --> 00:12.176
sleeves up with our cami . And so just

00:12.176 --> 00:14.231
wanna offer a quick refresher on how

00:14.231 --> 00:16.342
you can make your sleeves look a nice

00:16.342 --> 00:18.398
and tight and professional today and

00:18.398 --> 00:20.453
avoid having those nasty sleeves and

00:20.453 --> 00:22.509
getting the , when you walk into the

00:22.509 --> 00:24.509
mini mart uh Monday morning and get

00:24.509 --> 00:26.565
caught by a sergeant major or master

00:26.565 --> 00:28.231
gunnery sergeant . So I wanna

00:28.231 --> 00:30.231
transition a flat surface like this

00:30.231 --> 00:32.398
with the name tapes facing down . I'll

00:32.398 --> 00:34.509
then grab the ends of the blouse like

00:34.509 --> 00:36.676
this and flip it over so that the name

00:36.676 --> 00:36.599
tapes are now facing upwards . And then

00:36.610 --> 00:38.950
I'm just gonna , you can use an iron or

00:38.959 --> 00:40.903
you just use your hands to kind of

00:40.903 --> 00:43.015
flatten everything out portion of the

00:43.015 --> 00:45.479
sleeve and mirror it with this portion

00:45.490 --> 00:47.768
on the cuff . And what I found is that ,

00:47.770 --> 00:50.200
that allows me to just have a little

00:50.209 --> 00:53.529
bit of working room uh when I go to fix

00:53.540 --> 00:55.762
the cuff . And so I'll keep kind of two

00:55.762 --> 00:57.818
points of contact , index finger and

00:57.818 --> 01:00.240
thumb on that portion there to maintain

01:00.250 --> 01:02.139
control . And then I'm just gonna

01:02.139 --> 01:06.050
slowly roll and I'm taking my

01:06.059 --> 01:08.170
time when I'm doing this and I'm just

01:08.170 --> 01:10.337
gonna work all of that excess material

01:10.337 --> 01:12.281
out . Here's where it kind of gets

01:12.281 --> 01:14.503
tricky because of how close I have it .

01:14.503 --> 01:16.670
I know that I'm not gonna be able to ,

01:16.670 --> 01:18.948
to get my arm all the way through that .

01:18.948 --> 01:20.948
So I , I have a pretty good idea of

01:20.948 --> 01:23.170
what the proper separation should be on

01:23.170 --> 01:25.281
the cuff . So instead of pulling hard

01:25.281 --> 01:27.448
on it , I'm just gonna very easily and

01:27.448 --> 01:29.670
gradually just pull on it , continue to

01:29.670 --> 01:31.837
work and just put it in this way . And

01:31.837 --> 01:34.059
if you can get it above your elbow with

01:34.059 --> 01:36.170
very little problems and you probably

01:36.170 --> 01:35.830
have a good amount of , of distance and

01:35.839 --> 01:38.129
then you're just gonna repeat the same

01:38.139 --> 01:40.250
steps on the other side and then your

01:40.250 --> 01:42.306
sleeves will look all nice and tight

01:42.306 --> 01:44.528
and that's a quick refresher on how you

01:44.528 --> 01:46.528
can look nice and professional with

01:46.528 --> 01:45.970
rolling your sleeves .
