Out with the greens, in with the blue. With a coat it looks great. Without the coat and with the white shirt it looks awful!

Between the berets and the ugly new white shirts, the Army is looking quite gay these days.

I would ‘lol’ but I am sure this more of a time of mourning than outright laughter.

The Army is joining the Air Force? pretty funny, considering the Air Force was once a branch of the Army.

The greens looked like warmed over dog poop.

The blue look like poop. At least that’s an improvement. They’d be better off if they just went back to Ike jackets.

Ah yes; the Army and it’s never ending quest to make soldiers look like Panamanian generals.

Looks like they just decided to cut production costs and steal Air Force uniforms.

Does this smell like pEU, or am I off base here?

Bit of a different beast, but much better green.

Here's a different photo showing the coat:

The yellow leg stripe is a nice touch (Plains Indians used to call the infantry "yellowlegs" because of their yellow-striped pants) and I wonder if the artillery guys will get red?

Still, this is going to look a lot like the Air Force blues to the uninitiated.

It doesn't do anything for me at all. The beret kills it for me.

Light green is going to show the dirt less.

That green looks very professional. That would be my preference.

Looks a little too “Air Force” to me.
