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

I'd support a common working uniform (cammo). I like the diversity of the dress uniforms of each service.

Don’t change the Marines uniform or their covers! We are different! Pride in our uniform!

For camos/field uniforms, absolutely. For a multitude of reasons, however I think the 2 paramount reasons are cost and unity. If the entirety of the US military is utilizing the same uniform, we will be saving a lot of money. And wearing the same camos just makes sense, in any situation where this uniform is utilized, no one is going to be concerned about uniforms. And there is still the name tape for th3 branch of service over the breast pocket. And we still have service, and dress uniforms specific to each branch. I am 100% in favor.

In my opinion when the Navy went to the new working uniform was a big mistake
The dungaree uniform was better. Why do you need to wear camaflouge on a ship out in the middle of the ocean? You fall over board you are screwed....

$$$, Have you seen the digital 'blue' uniform the Navy and Air Force are/were sporting; Who needs that? Standardize the Uniform between the Marines, Army, and Navy Seabee's, Air Force, Navy, and Coast Guard personnel assigned to theater can wear that uniform. Didn't DOD just admonish all services for excessive uniform expenditures? It never ceases to amaze me when each Branch of Service expends $$$ for a Uniform, Vehicle, Weapon(system) that another Branch has already tested and fielded.
