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

Yes, this is the only time since the creation of utilities that we don’t have a common working uniform to deploy with. Different ones don’t fiscally make sense...

Well it brings back the old saying," we are all equal in the military, because we all dress the same, to look the same and act the same". I agree that all services of the military must wear the multicam uniform. It would bring down the uniform cost, show that individualism is no longer needed by each branch and make it harder for our enemies to tell who they're fighting. We once wore olive green fatigues, except for ship borne sailors. Why not Multicam now?

Yes. I came up under woodland, standard bdu. Worked fine. Just no velcro for the love of all that is holy.

The Marines and Navy Seals still use their own uniforms, vice the OCPs in Afghanistan. We Navy folks have Type III's (green digis) which is our deployed uniform to HOA and other places, but use the OCPs in Afghanistan.
For us, if we could use Type III's instead of OCP, it would mean we would actually have useful gear when we return home, instead of Army gear that will probably sit around the man cave as war mementos. Not sure if this is a justifying enough reason, but it hits a little bit on the personal side, especially as we officers buy our own gear usually.

I think that each branch should have a uniform that applies to their theater of operations... as for every branch looking the same that would be a bad idea ! We're all on the same team of course but if you can't tell the diffrent between a coast guard member and a marine or army from navy not only will this create confusion amongst squad leaders, platoon sgts, but a far greater confusion between branches ...Not to mention the pride that comes to being part of a certain branch...

Not only no but he'll no, mainly for traditions sake if your in bush or desert that's different situation and should be handled as such

Every branch needs its own task specific uniform, anyone as doesn't realize this ought to just retire and make way ,a sailors uniform includes bell bottom pants for a reason and why should they wear woodland or desert colors ? And shouldn't airman wear clothing as makes them less a target in case they have to bail ? Marines are specop navy and spend time on the beach the army ? Put them back in of and teach them about vegging out with yeti and making mud pies oh and since we are on track tell them there boots will be black in color and highly shined because an individual as spends an hour a day on their boots is gonna pay attention where they put there feet

No. I like the division. If we all wear the same uniform then we might as well be in the same branch. Also other branches haven't earned the right to wear the same uniform like the air force, navy, and coast gaurd.
