What is the Gig Line

The “gig line” is a military term for the straight line formed from aligning your shirt buttons, belt buckle, and pants zipper. It creates symmetry in your outfit and stops you from looking sloppy. This is one of the uniform requirements for being properly dressed for members of the military.
