Why the Army would want it’s soldiers to be confused with Marines is a mystery. Don’t institutions like to be a little bit unique?

The biggest issue is how many open fags will be in the service and they are bickering about unis?

I would thing that camo patterns would be all about breaking up the visual lines human eyes use to differentiate objects. If the Marine camouflage is truly better, then so be it. They’re all on the same side.

Sort of depends on how visible you want to be while someone is trying to draw a bead on your a$$.

Their covers are different and they roll their sleeves differently so it would not be hard to tell the two services apart if they wore the same cammies.

Good camouflage is good camouflage...UCP is just plain useless.
