Why are soldiers at the gate wearing their black beret with their ACU's on gate guard?

I thought they did away with the black beret and soldier only wear the black beret in the new blues?

The Beret is still part of the fatigue uniform and is worn with the ACU when directed by the COmmander.

soldiers or airmen? all of the air force security forces I've seen posted at gates had their black beret on.

its up to the commander though
