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

Ha, you mean like in 1982 when we adopted BDUs for all the services as a land component field uniform?

We all wore the same uniform for my first 13 years and then things just got stupid and wasteful. Tiger stripes for AF?? Yes, the Marines are to blame as they rolled out the digital camo in 2001 for testing. Sadly, you have a whole generation who can’t remember when we all wore the same tactical uniform.
I think since all the branches are different you need to be able to distinguish between each branch.... besides it promotes esprit de corp.

I thoroughly agree. Maybe this way they don't have to change to a new look at what seems to be every couple of years. I went through 4 uniform changed when I was in.

I'd seen another thread on this here, though that one dealt with rank insignia...please understand, this is obv purely my own thought process, however, aside from multicams, as you'd mentioned, there are pretty well always gonna be uniform differences, it's never gonna be wholly standardized, though, as your photos showed, what you tried to depict is most likely as close as that sort of standardization would prob ever got, I should think...as I'd said, those are obv just purely my own thoughts, of course....

Dress uniform no. Combat uniform Maybe, with service specific rank and branch tapes as in US ARMY, US NAVY,. Dual Service assignment yes. Now i have to ask are we going to paint all the planes, and ships, anfibs to match or what?
