Could you imagine Army and Air Force rank insignias colored based on the Service Members career management field?

Well yes, I can, since the Navy's have been like that for 80 years. Recently obliterated.

They could use the colors of the three main fields in the Army, Yellow for Armor, Red for Infantry, and the Blue for Artilliery .

Sure, Army Officers have colored backing on their shoulder boards to designate their branch. No big deal.

Didn't the Army have Branch and Duty specific colors for rank back in the mid 1800's?

As an E-4 I hate the idea, mainly due to the fact I'm a computer guy and someone that doesn't know me would see I'm commo and will ask me to help them with their computer, but on the non-shitbag E-4 side, it's a good idea IMO, easier to pick someone out by their "specialty"
