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?

No, Marine Corps has 3 things on their uniform; rank on collar, U.S.Marines and last name on chest. The army gets colorful as hell with their patches and covers. If everyone wants to copy the Marine Corps fine, but I think keeping it barebones is the best. Also ranking would be different. The Marines have too much pride to compare themselves with any other E3 lol

Currently the Airforce has adopted the Army's current style camo pattern uniform. Would it make more sense for the Navy to adopt as well? Probably as the Seabees have a different one again from the Marines. and the Marines currently have 2 camo patterns they utilize. Perhaps the better question would be should the Navy and Marine Corps have a specific standard land duty uniform, and the Army and Airforce their specific land duty uniform. Thus reducing the number of options from about the current 5 uniforms to three total.

No. I would want to be able to distinguish between Air Force and military.

I'm all for it. Other branches may give each other shit time and again, but there's no arguing that the military as a whole is one cohesive unit. Our rank systems are diverse enough where we can tell when we're dealing with a Soldier or Airman or whatever else. Cost-wise, it'd probably be cheaper to keep everything to one standard BDU and/or dress blues anyway.

I support a common field uniform like the old OD green fatigues or the BDU’s. They should be worn on base only and not in Walmart or a restaurant or on a commercial aircraft. Field uniform are not for the general public. With everyone wearing the same field uniform, we would have uniformity and think of the cost savings. In the field, you see that uniform and you know that person is US Forces. No mistakes.....

No I wouldn't. Having a ACU multicam uni in the Navy just doesn't make sense on a ship. So you have one exemption. Having the Air Force flight suits as ACUs, that doesn't make sense either... so a second exemption. The Marines have a tradition of different head gear, which I support. Not a Marine, but they look sharp. Each different branch has tradition and should keep that tradition alive. If not, then just have one military branch...

Not at all. I prefer to stay having the best looking uniform in the whole military, not downgrading to some army type uniform.
