If you had a choice, which uniform pattern/style would you want to wear?

ACU's were JUST DUMB! Any Infantryman worth his salt hates them because: A) The pattern doesn't hide you. B) The Velcro is too noisy. C) The Chinese collar is useless. D) Velcro pants pockets won't stay shut with a load. E) Zippers cannot be replaced in the field if it breaks -unlike a simple button.

MARPAT seems to be the best in the business followed closely by Multi-cam. I worked with the Army in Afghan and they had the Multi-cam and it blended really well. Almost as good as MARPAT

The MARPAT in my opinion is best. Simple yet effective with one color body armor and accessories that works with both woodland and desert uniforms. The Multicam is nice but not much different from the MARPAT I don't think. I think the necessity of camouflage is over-stated in most instances as well. Being difficult to see and having your outline broken up is good, but we don't need to go through 6 different uniforms to make that happen. Also, what in the world is the Navy thinking with blue uniforms? Blending in with the ocean when someone falls overboard is not a good thing.

Despite what some people thought about starching or shining boots, I think it helped to build individual pride in ones self. Some new and younger soldiers have a hard time with time management. Making sure you had a crisp uniform and shined boots showed leadership who cared about themselves and who could manage their time. Let's face it, it took a long time to starch your own uniform and shine your boots for the next duty day. It would not hurt my feelings if they both came back, but I would be sick to my stomach in seeing younger, and inexperienced soldiers trying to do it right.

Multicam. It is great camouflage that will hide you from more than gravel. (ACU)

All services wearing the MARPAT, no patches for any services, rank on the collar and no American flag. We all know we are part of the United States Armed Forces, why have only one branch wear the American flag? Uniformity across the board will alleviate unnecessary spending across the DoD. I like the look of the OCP, however the material is the same as the ACU and it needs to go away.

I will keep my ACU, the Army Combat Uniform is a good cut and has functional pockets. I despise Universal Camo Pattern because it is universally ineffective. Let us just switch to multi-cam or some other similar color scheme, slap it on the ACU, and continue mission. We already have the stocks and industry. The Army is just dragging its feet and managing to spend more money. Cyre was willing to negotiate, the Army wasn't. Now I have to continue wearing this abomination of a uniform.

I loved my multi-cam and really wish the Army just make the change already. If the Army doesn't want to do the multi-cam design per say, then they should could the Marines' multi-cam print, but we need to keep our version of the patrol cap or we need to go back to wearing berets

I know not everybody has had the opportunity to wear the Multican AKA OCP's but they are by far the best uniform i have ever had the privlegde of putting on extremely comfortable decent durability and a damn smart designe the army got it right. I have worn BDU, ABU heavy and light weight, and DCU and Multicam is hands down the best.

Multicam.  It's comfortable, sensible, it works, and I have 6 sets of them.  It never made any sense to me that I would see folks in different uniforms downrange when we are all fighting in the same area.  Do away with distinct service uniforms and go with one that works for where we fight instead.  Bring back the DCUs or some variant of them, go with the Multicam since we have already spent billions of dollars on them.  Abandon the ACUs because they just don't work, wear out too quickly, and also, they don't work.  Did I already write that?

Our distinctive uniforms are our ASUs (And other service equivalents).  Those are the uniforms in which we stand out as a separate service.  The Class C uniform (ASUs) are combat uniforms.  There just isn't a plausible reason that we have different ones for different services.

The pic below says it all.  The purpose of camouflage is to stand out in your surroundings, isn't it?
