National Strip Requirements for World Vet Champs???

Hi

Am trying to help a friend out...

Does anyone know what the National Strip requirements will be for the upcoming Veteran World Champs (in Tampa, I believe)?

I believe that the requirement (where national strip is applicable) is for it to be along both legs and at least one (your front) arm - http://www.britishfencing.com/29%20J...ulechanges.doc

However, the Publicity Code (http://www.fie.ch/download/rules/fr/CODEPUB.pdf) doesn't actually list the Veteran World Championships as one of the competitions that requires the national strip.

So, to me, this suggests that Veterans don't need the national strip at all.

Boo

It definitely will not be both legs. They forgot to indicate the rule applies only after the Senior Worlds. Also under rules the specification for the Veteran Worlds state "The personal equipment of the fencers must comply to the FIE rules.
