Would you support a standard uniform for all branches of service? Why or Why not?

I agree and disagree. I think we should all have a few different sets, of the same colored cammies, you wear whichever color is closest to the surroundings you're in. Referring back to vegetation running around on a ship deck. The Navy has already started this process. They have blue cammies for ship rates, and they have a multi cam uniform for other environments. Also sticking with few variations. I'll wear the same cammies as someone in the Army or Navy, but as a Marine, I'd like to take pride in my branch of service and stick out a tiny bit amongst my brothers and sisters of other branches.

Yes! For easier identification of friendly forces. We are inching closer and closer to a peer on peer or state enemy in a conventional setting. Plus you can buy replacement clothing on any base.

BS, no Marine wants to look like a Doggie or Squid! Get your headgear checked!

Wasting your time. The Marines will never convert to a common uniform. What the Army should focus on is getting their own “uniform house” in order. Ever since Desert Storm the Army has worn their battle dress (way too many names to recall) as the uniform of day for everything, liberty, travel, meetings with civilians in coat and ties, joint meetings where other services are in kakis or blues. It is an embarrassment to the Army. Only thing worse is the Air Force wearing flight suits to the same meetings.

We could do like China did. Same uniform, variation of colors.
I'm ex-Navy and I always thought the jumpsuit is what they should run with though. Because they are technicians and operators first.
The Air Force could do the same thing with different badging.
No reason the Army and Marine Corps could not double up. The Marines could keep their cap. Just diffeeent badging....
So in my mind, two "standardized" uniforms. For work. Everyone can have their own dress uniform.
Heaven forbid if the Navy got rid of its dress whites......

Makes a lot of sense! But that would also be the reason I could see it NOT happening!
