lol jesus. I do tend to side with the marine uniform for what is seeming functionality but what the hell do I know. Army ACU seems a little off but perhaps not in the wooded areas of afghanistan?

Congress has mandated the Army change from the ACU to another uniform for Afghanistan but did not supply the funding last week

I'm not sure if it's being surprised, i'm more disappointed. The idea is to be efficient and effective, period.

If it makes sense our government will find a way to fuck it up.

Actually from some pictures that I've seen(particularly in Afghanistan), the ACUs work pretty well.

What are they going to change it to? Multicam?

They're not changing it, as far as I know. There are some special operations units that use multicam, but that's because they are special operations. They get to choose what they wear. I've seen recent pics of SEAL units with the old 3 color woodland and desert camo, ACUs, and even desert MARPAT. As for multicam - well I've seen Blackwater guys and Airforce CSAR guys wearing it.

Which branch has the least effective uniform?

My bids are on the USAF.....our test uniform made you look like a blue ass smurf, Then they make a crappy tiger striped Airman Battle Uniform. I think it makes you stand out like a turd in a punch bowl.
