Uniforms
If you had a choice, which uniform pattern/style would you want to wear?<div><br></div><div><span style="color: rgb(44, 44, 44); font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">This year, the Joint Staff’s top enlisted adviser, Marine Sgt. Maj. Bryan Battaglia, said the mix of uniforms makes the U.S. military look like a “Baskin-Robbins” and signaled his support for a common uniform.<br></span><br><span style="color: rgb(44, 44, 44); font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">But Marine Corps Commandant Gen. James Amos recently said preserving the Corps’ MARPAT pattern is a top priority and declared that his service will stick to it “like a hobo to a ham sandwich.”</span><br></div>

If I had my way I would stay with the ARMY uniform we have now or what ever current pattern the military is using but I would develop this uniform could be worn in side or outside urban/jungle or desert type. you could save a lot of money of the design and style type uniform, just pull all the Velcro patches and goodies off and attach them to your uniform inside or out. One style boots or two style depending on the climate.
Please stay with MOLLE SYSTEM for gear. Please get a new carrier for the freaking mask.

Marines are mighty particular about their uniform. Strict rules for various uniform of the day.

I miss the old BDU's simply for the ability to starch and press them. It was just something about putting on a fresh starched uniform. I don't miss shining the boots, though.

That may have felt nice. But ours is one of the few armies that thinks starching camouflage is a good idea. It looks sharp but deteriorated the fabric. I don't miss it because a combat fatigue uniform should be above all else practical. A Battle Dress Uniform should be seen as a piece of equipment to enhance our lethality and survivablity, not a fashion statement.

If it's only one pattern for multiple environments, then it's multicam all day long.

If we want multiples I would choose the Kryptek patterns. But if we want one single pattern I would choose the OCP pattern. UCP has proven itself as ineffective (mainly because of the coloring) and the Army finally made a good decision in that it should be replaced. Patterns will continue to evolve combine that with technology and we will have the chameleon pattern. (This actually exist and is in testing)
