If you could change anything about the current Combat Uniform, what would it be and why?

I have been bothered by patterns that had colors that didn't appear in nature and blended with nothing. I tend to think the Marines do the best job finding patterns and colors that do blend and that has served as a good example. With more and more joint service operations a least a standard color and pattern to fit the operating area and only insignia and rank designating the individual service. Never mind Velcro insignia, having it sewn on is a lot better. Rank Insignia, what about how the Marines display it, on the collar but in a form that can pinned on where it can be seen and be removed if the need arises. I have mixed feeling on the rank showing as in combat especially with people You may not know You may need that information Yourself to ID those that would be in charge or senior to You. There isn't time to try and figure that out in combat which is much of the reason there is that rank insignia in the first place. It doesn't have to be large but at least be in a place so that people in Your immediate area can see it and not hidden under Your equipment such as having it on Your chest would do.

I hate the zipper pockets on the sleeves.

To be honest rank on combat uniforms does not make a lot of sense if it could be visible from more than 10 feet away, my friend SSG(P) (Join to see)
