Honestly, the US WWI uniform should just be the dress uniform for all branches, and don't gussy it up or anything, cos that looks gay as fuck. Just a really simple, martial, and inherently good looking uniform.

>>34824354
Because we keep making ugly as fuck uniforms ever since we dropped BDUs and the Army's old Class A. Since then they've been doing a horrific job at damage control.

We would have looked so sweet, but for the reason I just stated above, they got shitcanned. Some literal Jews complained that they looked like Waffen SS uniforms.

IMO every branches dress uniforms look like shit except Marine chucks. Yes, dress blues look like shit and I don't get why they're so hyped by everyone. Get rid of all the camo and go to single color utilities. issue appropriate camo to deploying troops with a pattern related to where they're deploying to.

I uh, actually like the AF uniforms? God help me, I even like the ABUs

A lot could be fixed with dress blues if the army did away with all the fucking snowflake additions that certain soldiers get. No tucking into boots, no cowboy hats, switch to belts for all, get rid of red and black berets, maybe keep green and tan ones at most.

>>34828506
This. Blues are almost exclusively used for punishment purposes. No pride in wearing something you're forced to maintain in case you fuck up. Also our branches are wasting money on this different uniform bullshit, we should all decide on one standard. I say OCPs since they're required when army/usaf deploy.

Honestly military dress uniforms should always include a cape for anyone above Sergeant.

The parallels you drew are close but not exact. The definitions are:

Blue - Medal of Distinguished Service
"For a courageous deed that is to be distinguished"
Red - Medal of Courage
"For a courageous deed performed in combat duty and with risk of life"
Yellow - Medal of Valor
"For a deed of utmost courage performed in combat in the face of enemy forces"

These definitions preclude certain deeds from recieving certain awards, like a minefield rescue that got Courage because no enemy forces were present.

The law also states that only the ribbons are to be worn except for Independence Day and the Memorial Day right before it.

Also my favorite "civvie" medal is the WW2 vet medal, awarded to all allied veterans, as well as partisans and resistance groups. Note the black-white-red theme after the Iron Cross, plus a blue stripe for a little fu to kraut.

>>34829035
>close but not exact
Look at the requirements for the DSM, DSC, and MoH. Combined with the rankings, I'd say close enough. Even the DSC is basically "heroism not justifying a MoH".
WRT not wearing medals, I personally like the idea, keeping it classy with minimum bling. Compare to Nork generals with so many medals they have them on their pants.

Easy. Disband the Air Force. Get rid of the bureaucrat policies preventing the Army from having fixed wing aircraft. Give the land-based nukes to the Army.

Give all saved money to Navy, USMC, and Army. Problem solved.

Only negative is that the employee candidate pool for DMV employees will grow by 5000%.

Stop trying to derail our thread. You're not welcome here and if the Air Force pisses you off that much just hide the thread and fuck off somewhere else.

only airborne troops blouse dress pants, and the airborne was the first to go with boots over leggings to begin with

>>34830922
>USMC
Disband them too, they're literally a poorer, useless army force designed for amphibious assaults. Army guys did just fine storming the beaches of Normandy. Make them either an assault division of the Navy or put them in the Army.

Bam, now we have the Army and Navy.

yeah just go back to the 4 button tunic, but in shade 1620 so you don't have to replace the pants and caps.

Also, the Army uniform isn't ugly, it's the historic uniform used by the US Army since the very beginning, just in a more modern cut.

>top 3 ribbons/medals only.
>replace US lapel devices with some embroidered patches. gold for officers and silver for unlisted

I think pic related being paid by krauts is more effective fu to krauts. First two submarines of 1st batch fully paid by Germans, third 50% paid by Germans. First two submarines of second batch 33% subsidized by German taxpayers and final 15% paid by krauts.

>>34826110
>>34826201
I prefer the ABUs to ACUs.

Anyway, I'd say that the ideal preparation would be giving the military a centralized uniform, then instating regulations and changes to the uniform (shade of accents, shade of uniform, how it is to be worn) is to be based on branch and subtexts, so for example the United States Air Force blouses their boots, and the airborne infantry of other branches do the same.

You want to know why the german WW2 uniform looked so "refined and sharp"? Because they were worn by germans who understood and respected the heritage and traditions that the uniform carried with it.

The problem with the US is that they don't make something which is unique or connected to its history, but instead tries to copy the uniform of another country/culture because "it looks good".

It will never look anything other than forced, like that kid who wore his dads leather jacket to school, obviously several sizes too large but you know, m'lady.

Ditch the Forage cap and bring back peaked caps. Improve the officer "shoulder boards" with something similar to what the army has then it would start looking top tier.

I had a arguement with my roommate during college about this because we're both AFROTC and for some reason he thinks the current AF uniform is the second coming of jesus (mainly because he was JROTC) but everyone else thinks it's trash due to the cover. If you're a pilot or something aviation you can keep the forage hat due to easier to store it when on a no-cover zone.


>>34833319

A flag officer with buddies in the uniform business (that's a thing) wanted to ensure he had a job after retirement. So the contract was awarded and now that flag officer's relaxing life is sealed.

Marines can't afford such change and it would cause public intoxication and disorderly conduct among junior enlisted, possibly a riot, in excess of average weekend. Think of all the poor sergeant majors, writing NJP's at current rates is already a burden for them and drives them to alcoholism.

Because the Marines actually respect tradition.
Which is why service and dress uniforms haven't changed since before WWII.

Attempts to "update" or Change Marine uniforms have been made and they have been met with the most toxic hate mankind has ever seen.

Should a Commandant actually propose to adopt a new Dress Blues uniform I have no doubt in my mind he would have very literal and real death threats sent to him.

What do you want? There's only so much you can do with a modern combat uniform, that's why just about every military's combat/utility uniform is the same with the only difference being color and tailoring. Also have no idea what you mean by "sleeve rollers." I'll agree Army, Air Force, and to some extent Navy suck at rolling sleeves but Marine sleeves are hard to beat.

That's because the Army tried Copying, BADLY, Marine Blues you dingus. And the Army does not tailor their dress blues. It's actually against regs to tailor Army blues.

Also

you overestimate the fashion sense of yankees

even in the tailoring world, there's a few styles of venting a suit in the rear so it can move around. american suits gained notoriety once american industry got good enough to export lots of suits, because americans were too stupid to cut a vent in the back so that the suit can actually move with you and be taken in at the waist properly. it's generally known as either "American-Style" or "Potato Sack Style" because it literally looks like you just put on a fucking potato sack and called it a day (which is probably what the yankees were exporting at the time, honestly)

Unless you're buying your suits off the rack from a department store you're going to get a vent and even then you're still likely to get a vent. Ventless jackets are either bottom of the barrel cheap ones or a specific style of double breasted.

how to fix the shit AF uniforms:
Dress Uniform coat
stand-collared, 4-pocket quarter length, with belt. similiar to the proposed revision but in a lighter navy so it doesn't look like an imperial star wars costume. Add sleeve stripes for officers and service stripes for enlisted.

pants
get rid of woman's skirts and take pants in 1 inch for both sexes, otherwise stay the same

headgear
get rid of stupid banana woman's flight cap and sew up flap in standard flight cap. allow everyone to be wear it in heritage "crushed" style instead of just pilots. require wheel cap for full service dress.

cold weather gear
issue wool singlebreasted topcoat with stand collar to match service coat instead of stupid soviet looking current issue. epaulettes and loops with rank insignia

footwear
explicitly allow polished boots, keep dress shoes, keep reg for combat jobs to blouse dress pants

get rid of princess cut woman's shirts and short sleeve men's dress shirts, keep everything else the same

no.

there need to be 3 basic uniform.s

>dress uniform - used for all those formal occasions. modifactions based on you wearing the coat, sweater, overcoat, or just the shirt.
>combat uniform - used for anything but formal events and PT. add or substitue items as needed to suit environment.
>pt uniform - physical training, medical, sleeping in the field when you can do that sort of thing. for the love of god get rid of the black shirt. just use one of the ACU undershirts.

good luck convincing the marine corps and navy to give up their dozen or so dress variations. dress uniforms also have various levels of formality too that correspond to informal and black/white tie civilian dress codes

this

we had the 4-bellows pocket jacket with a belt as the replacement jacket. just delete the belt and we're good. CSAF T Michael Moseley essentially wore one in retirement... though he got hit with the Minot nuke scandal so it might not be the best to imitate him too closely.

it looked more like the Empire from Star Wars to me.

flight caps only look good when they're crushed and crumpled from being under you g-suit. i lost my flight cap that i had from OTS through my first few months of being a Captain and i miss it every time i put on my non-sweat stained, beat to hell, silver trim scratched off by my flight suit zipper cap.

fighter squadrons are well-stocked with booze. you can only drink when the beer light is on, which is after the last takeoff of the day.

that's because they picked a really dark navy. a lighter color would help quite a bit. The cheap looking belt doesn't help either

and someone tell that fucking officer that things that pin to the epaulets need to pinned all the way through. so they sit flat.

women's suit coats really require vertical darts to facilitate the hourglass shape

>>34846456
pins in epaulets are nonsensical to begin with. the entire point of them is to allow loops or shouldboards

the most asinine thing ever, is no breast pockets on female dress uniform jackets or shirts. so everything has to be lined up and pinned on the bust line of the clothing item as it is worn. making it fucking nearly impossible for females to get dressed alone.

and you really should go with a heavy shoulder board instead of a light sleeve epaulet.

keeps things looking smooth and straight

probably a cheap disposable camera, or a point & shoot.

sleeve stripes are gay. leave that to the navy and the RAF

and without crushed caps for fighter pilots, what will chiefs be angry about? they'll die if they don't have minor uniform issues to bitch at a random Captain about.

i'm sorta with you with the short sleeve dress shirt. in AETC they were going to make us (flight school students waiting to class up/washouts/graduates waiting to go on to our MWS B-course) go to some joint Navy ceremony... with short sleeve blues, ribbons, and ties. gay af. short sleeve blues with anything other than the minimum makes you look like a Mormon missionary.

the Florida gulf coast is hot as balls to be in long sleeve blues for any longer than absolutely necessary though.

>>34846548
boards are very formal though. A few pins will make the loops stay down.

>>34846556
>sleeve stripes are gay.
I disagree, stripes are a distinctly miiltary feature, and without them the sleeves look like a corporate suit. I'd like to see service stripes as well because they immediately denote time in service. The ribbon is fucking stupid.

The short sleeve with or without tie looks like hot garbage. and long sleeves are no hotter than ABUs.

US military could stand to have patches, embroidery, or ribbon on the lapels. like the red ribbons on the brit general.

>>34846619

rank sleeve stripes are gay, and the AF has rank stripes on your upper arm.

at leas you can roll ABU sleeves/remove the blouse assuming your work area doesn't have some rule against it. i haven't worn ABUs in years though.

>>34846679
*officer rank sleeve stripes

that's what's homosexual.

after all, that's how the Navy does it.

well, rank stripes in the navy are only worn by officers anyway, and they don't have sleeve stripes. even a simple band in silver or silver edged black would look much better imo, something like the command officer's uniform, but without all the other silver piping

When you throw on a beret and jump boots it doesn't look as shit, but then again everything looks better when you're high speed as shit.

it's already on officer dress uniforms.

there's a thin dark blue braid for O-1 through O-6 and a thick one for general officers.

The Army had great uniforms for a while in the 1902 regulation dress blues. Honestly these were probably the best uniforms the US Army had for dress. Simple but sharp.

can you, like, never wear clothing ever again? you clearly don't understand it

you are aware that the 1944 model of the uniform was a copy of the british battledress ?

shitty meme

I've heard all over that we're supposed to begin transitioning to OCP pattern, but I've personally not been able to find anything on this myself. Anyone know? Tired of ABUs, such an eyesore.

And what is the likelihood of us actually changing our service dress any time soon?

The USMC used to have a cape in the uniform but its called a boat cloak.

>>34825916
Likely without. The gators were supposed to help keep water out of the boots, which was obviously a problem in the trenches. They weren't used by the army anywhere else as far as I know.

Why did the Navy need aquaflage, anyway? Especially since the only place it works is the one place you want to be easily seen. Honestly, the Navy should've stayed with the dungarees.

>>34849136
argument was it blended in with the paint of the ship since you're constantly repainting it and you'll get paint on your uniform.

which makes me wonder why they only came out with synthetic fabric. you'd think if your uniform is designed around an industrial work center like a ship, you'd have a no-melt, no-drip uniform.
