This 'money saving' move will cost millions. Again. And then in a few years once it's all settled they'll need to break them all up once again costing, you guessed it, millions once again.

Might as well have "equality" throughout, since DADT was abolished...
thank god we have finally come to our senses, all the budget woes have been solved.
be sure to have the lighter colored camo to wear in the spring.
we must have a diva on the budgeting board.
It bothers the hell out of me since I have to spend more money in new CAMS again!!! Those fucking things ain't cheap, and they don't issue'em to everyone but new troops and Drill Instructors!! The little money they give us enlisted, (officers don't get shit!!) for clothing maintenance is not enough to cover the cost.
When the Marine's went with their new camo design, all the other branches got jealous and needed to change. The Navy's "aquaflage" is the worst, next comes the Air Forces tiger stripe design, although at least they kept the same basic pant and jacket design as the old BDU. The Army's need for velcro just flat out sucks. I am hoping I stay in long enough for one more camo/uniform change and I hope it will be for the better.
I say bring back the old Nam-era green uniform, with multicams for deployment.
As long ad they got great guns and cool equipment that works well I Dont think the color of the camo means jack to most of them.
