As a Recruiter I have had insight on the Army Branding, and marketing Team for USAREC. We are getting beat by the Marines when it comes to image. The patches make civilians ask what do you do in the Army, on the flip side when a civilian sees a Marine no questions needed to be asked, whats your thoughts

Although I wish the Army would find that image and stick with it long enough.

With everything changing in the Army and so rapidly, perhaps this is why civilians have to ask these questions. Heck I'm only 9 months retired and they already changed WLC to BLC. The uniform changes every 10 years it seems. I say, respectfully, leave shit alone.

Keep th Patches ' The Marines are a small organization and there support comes mostly from the Navy also they have I believe 4 combat divisions and 2 or 3 are active and 1 inactive. The Army is a much larger organization and you spot different units by there patches .i.e. 1st Cav, 1st Armored, 1st id,,2ID, 2nd Armored, 4th ID, 3rd'Armed, 3rd ID, and numerous supporting units each has there different patches and each are recognized by there patches,

Keep the patches, but do away with the of color. For instance the Special Forces patch should be teal blue, not of.

Hell no... Patchs are a major part of esprit de corp. They give soldiers a feeling of family and friendly competition between divisions!

Being Navy, I have no dog in this hunt. However, I'd say leave them alone. The individual unit distinction, to my mind, improves camaraderie and morale.

When did the service become a business that needs to be marketed

Make a few ads of us slaying dragons after scailing a cliff and we'll do fine.
