He's wearing a suit live on Fox News right now. Seems to be his thing with the American Flag pocket square.

No, the Sec of Defense is explicitly a civilian.

Dr. Perry looked like something out of Revenge of the Nerds in his cheap blue blazer and high-water khakis...when he went to the field, he wore something like Sears khaki workman's uniforms.

Rumsfeld was immaculately tailored in the building, i don't remember what he wore when he visited the troops...

He wore stuff military inspired but not uniforms to the best of my memory.

He was always sharp.

I would invent one, like Rehnquist or the Surgeon General.
