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

Why would one uniform be good? Four different purposes you can’t make one that fits them all.

Never

I liked the olive green uniforms with ranks on the collar black belt shined black leather boots and the uniform starched this look good in garrison. Field duty wear cammies. But dress uniforms stay the same.

They need go back to the BDU we had in the seventies use the cammies in the field and combat. Spit shined boots also

Well it worked fine when we all had the woodland camo BDU!! Why wouldn't it work again. Plus it would probably save tax payer money in the long run. Yes at first the price tag would be high, but after the first year it would fall.

No! Maybe a common combat uniform for everyone that actually fights but the rest should wear a service identifying uniform

Bad idea, sorry. Different requirements for the different services. Navy should go back to the bell bottoms and chambray shirts.

I may have said this on here before, and realize I !at be repeating myself, yeah, it could obv be done, the thing is, just think how much fun we'd all lose trying to keep all the different ones straight all the time, you know? Lol....

I feel that if the different branches want unique uniforms they can have their own dress uniforms but a standard field uniform is the right way to go.

In my opinion, I'd say every branch can keep their uniform design cut but everyone must have the same uniform pattern. The Marines/Navy can still maintain their sewn on tapes, pin on ranks and current design uniform cuts as well as the Army/Air Force with the current ACU cut with velcro but everyone (branch) would have the same camouflage pattern instead. Look at the pictures attached to my comment. Same pattern, different uniform cuts/layout.

I don't care for the 1 fits all uniform idea it's been a long standing thing to have different uniforms leave things alone Marines have theirs Navy has theirs army has ours and air Force kinda just does whatever

I support that change but believe it should happen in 2026/2027 in order to mitigate effects felt with U.S. Army recent change in FY-17/18. I thought it was amusing in 2003 when it starting hitting operating forces. We are one Nation, wear one uniform. Long term you save the taxpayer dollar. We know it will be wasted elsewhere.

standard uniforms I support that I would put the rank on the sleeves for enlisted personnel though. I believe we need to KISS instead of changing the uniform every two years to put money in some generals buddy s pocket under the premise that he or she is a vendor.

Honestly if I have the United States Flag on my shoulder and so do you is it really that hard to tell if I stand by you?

Fiscally it makes sense and facilitates uniform and uniform component availability to all service members.

I like the distinction between each branch.

Gimme back my damn Pickle suit!

I would be ok with bdu’s being the same just for the fact you would have less confusion in battle of someone not recognizing another branchs uniform and possibly firing on them . but keep the class a dress uniform seperate

I think the Navy shouldn’t wear camouflage at sea! That’s just dumb! However, on post, at least the Army, and Marine Corp should be the same. The Airforce May have different demands, but in the field, the battle dress should be the same for all!

it sure would save the military a lot of money with a single battle uniform.

Absolutely not! I think you need to have distinction between the branches whether it be combat uniform or dress uniform.

One standard uniform doesn't make sense though we are just switching to the water army uniform and it's seen as a joke we wear coveralls when underway. Unless youre a deck combat job like GM VBSS or ground combat AKA seal Seabees etc. I don't know about you but a green and tan uniform puttering across the sea is much easier to spot that the blue NWU.

Yes, when I was in the Marine Corps every branch of service had the same camouflage utilities. I don’t know why they changed. Even being deployed to the desert we all had the same brown uniform.

One thing they need to get rid of is Velcro. It wears out way to fast.

Sorry, no. Some think tank rep would try to standardize everything and traditions plus service character would suffer. That said, we Navy aviators wore the same flight suits as AF, Army, Marines and Coast Guard. If we’re talking flight suits, fatigues or bdu’s Maybe but sailors should be wearing bell bottoms

No problem with it

The navy needs to adopt the USCG uniform that can be worn both on and off the ship.

Uniforms should be adapted to the area the member is serving in.

When i was in, army, air force, navy and the Marines all wore the same Cammies, and the navy had dungeries for ship duty.

Cost wise, the army, airforce and navy should of gollowed and used the Marpat cammies.

I would not agree with the same combat uniform for all services due to the fact all the branches don’t operate in the same location. (Sea, land and air) now if we are talking about dress uniform. Now that can be debated.

No because the uniforms separate the branches. Each Branch wants to look different than the other for the pride. When I was a Marine I wanted to look like a Marine not another branch cause I was proud of it. Now I’m in the Army I don’t want to look like a Marine cause I’m not anymore I want to live ok like a Soldier and don’t wanna look like a Airman or someone fr M the Navy it’s good too lol different

Need unisex style for the millenniums

I don't support anymore changes, keep what you have and stop waisting taxpayer money on stupid shit!

Indifferent, but can we standardize patches and rank placement

No, because I don’t want my Marine Corps to be confused with the Army. Mainly because the enemy fears us and not them. In Afghanistan they would avoid us and go after a easier softer target the Army.

Absolutely not , it was tried for awhile and didn't work out well. Leave it alone.

I agree with one standard combat uniform. Savings alone would be worth it. It’d just be a little harder to make fun of the Air Force

Each branch of our Armed Forces has uniqueness to themselves. So long as our combat uniforms do not betray the rules of camouflage I see no need to support such a change. Should our uniforms be too uniform with other branches what next? Forego our wearing special badges and insignia that sets us apart from others? I feel strongly that Ranger and Airborne Army units would not support such a change and neither would I.

As cost effective as this could be I would feel as they would be taking away the pride of the individual wearing the uniform of his or her branch. You joined one branch and most (I hope) feel a strong sense of pride in that branch including the specific uniforms we wear. Granted they’re pleanty of uniform changes through out every branch we still have the chance to strut our colors anywhere we go in our world. Further I don’t believe one uniform throughout the branches would be a good idea because of the implications and uses of various uniforms. The navy has their blueberries. The gray and blue digital color masks the gray paint sailors come into contact with on ship. The the Marines have uniforms best conducive to what they do in their environment. Army and the Air Force follows the same logic. The separate uniforms devolved due to separate needs of the individual branches. Plus I am not ready to pay for more sets of uniforms again. I just had to get new ones for a uniform change

Certainly. DoD waste millions on service specific uniforms. We should have one work or combat uniform that is the best in the world. As for dress uniforms, have distinct styles for the service but not for different regiment or specialty.
