Multicam joint
Airforce multicam
Multicam army
the closest I seen to a standard uniform for the Armed Forces was the multicam uniform when I was in Kandahar, and Air Force all wearing the uniform at one point with few deviations. Would do feel about this?

Would it save the military money?

There are so many other vital things money could be spent on for our military. Stop applying money and resources to yet, another uniform change. Lets focus on equipment, upgrades, maintenance, healthcare and salaries. Is this really a priority for the military?

No! Why is for a few different reasons. One is the cost, all of the other branches spent how much on their uniforms to realize that your decision was a bad one. Another is how two forces that are hardly rotating through but yet spent the money on doggies to fallow suit with the Army and Marines. Another is I couldn’t see any Marine wanting to wear your digge base ball caps or berets, it doesn’t look professional or have any traditional heritage to the Marines or Navy. The other is why do we want to look like each other, spare me the we are all on the same side. We’re on the same side of the fight, other than that we are in competition with each other and it makes us better!

The uniform shouldn't have never went obsolete with the ACU digital pattern and should've just changed over to a mulicam digital pattern cause the ACU pattern sort of tricks the eyes.So with the multicam digital pattern,it would of course look better and also would look like such a down grade from the ACU uniform

It has definately turned into a comedy show with each service trying to out due the other. It ends the need to memorize 5-6 different patterns for quick friend or foe. It definately saves money which could be used better places to help service members and thats always Awesome

Sure but please limit the hook and loop on it. Buttons and sew down patches.

We had one once when we all work the woodland camouflage. I support that.

As far as service dress blues (or green) I'm for service specific. The Cracker Jack is totally Navy. The Marines have a nice dress blue uniform that is distinctive too. Even Army and Air Force have theirs.

The service dress uniforms should be left to each service. They instill pride of service and are a tradition.

As far as a working out utility uniform I think that it could save costs if they were across the board. They same basic uniform with minor variations would work.

As a marine I'm extremely biased, so I don't support same uniforms for all branches, I like the fact my cammies are different and our chest embodies our Eagle Globe and Anchor.

One uniform with each branch small differences it would be cheaper due to one supply resource to draw from.

No. I think the different uniforms is what gives each branch their identity. Also every branch has a history for why its uniform is what it is. i.e thr Army Airborne dress blues.

Personally, i've always been in favor of the un-uniform. It promotes diversity, increases unit cohesiveness by making servicemen become aquainted with each others dressing habits to avoid friendly fire, increases enemy confusion as they cant tell our boys from civilians, and increases discipline, as ncos arent having hissy fits about a patch being a quarter of an inch off.

For our general uniform I agree. Maybe not aboard ships though, I am surprised sailors don't wear mechanic style overalls.

Go back to a common fatigue. One uniform saves the tax payer and simplifies the Supply Chain.
