The Lighthouse for the Blind where I work has a contract to warehouse and distribute textiles for the Air Force.

I wonder if we are going to see these in the future.

Absolutely no need for multicam in space.  Not like there's a lot of dirt and bushes and leaves out there.

There was some good looking space camo on one of the Expanse episodes.  Multicam is so terrestrial.

Less need to go home and change when you spill ramen on your shirt.

Honestly, I don't really care.  Nobody in space is going to see it (they will be on ships OR on earth commanding unmanned craft).

They just need a uniform.  But people are delusional if they think that a uniform like this will ever be seen "in space" by the enemy.

Multicam black with silver thread name tape and patches. Tailored obviously. Shined black boots and a fitted ball cap for a cover.

Needs issued Oakley aviators and an Omega Speedmaster as well.

And every position should be airborne coded.

Sailors? The Air Force is running the show, not faggots. They're Spacers.

You let the sailors flying dutchman and take their gay ass ideas of Navy fag ranks with them.

You're right. Everyone in the space force should be required to wear a space suit at all times, including PT.

Or spend 100 billion to develop a pattern like Multicam Black but slightly different so they don't have to license the pattern from Crye.

It's a no-win situation.

If we use existing camo uniforms, then everyone will predictably mock the whole "camo in space" thing

If we had developed a new uniform, then everyone will predictably complain about the "waste" of money, since we already have a ton of uniforms in the logistics pipeline.



... that said, I think they should have gone with whatever corresponding uniform the Navy uses.  Save the camo for the Space Marines.

In all seriousness, this is the answer.

But the space marines will just be marines. You think USMC will be satisfied with a separate Space Marines branch? Nah, the Earth USMC is gonna want to smash stuff in space too.

I don't want to buy new uniforms when I've got multiple nearly new sets of OCP ACUs, so I'm in favor of this decision.

Most people wearing camo won't find themselves in a position where they really need it, even in the Army.  I could have worn hunter orange in Iraq and wouldn't have stood out any more than I did wearing UCP FRACUs and armor and driving around in an MRAP to go fix bridges.

The argument can be made that the marines are just an army, so why does the Navy have one?  The air force doesn't have their own army.  They just move the regular army around on their airplanes when necessary, and the navy could just move the regular army around on their ships.

So - to my mind - the very existence of the Marines as a subset of the Navy sort of argues FOR the creation of Space Marines, not against them.

The Dress Uniform should look like Space Nazis and the camo should be space woodland and like they have weird bizarre white power armor.

My point is that if the army can train soldiers to deploy from planes operated by the Air Force (i.e. airborne infantry), then they can train soldiers to deploy from ships (i.e. marine infantry).    There is no reason for the Navy to have their own marine infantry force (instead of just ferrying around Army soldiers trained as marine infantry), but they do.  I'm just saying that the very existence of the Marines as subordinate to the Navy emphasizes the point that each branch can have their own "type" of infantry, and so there's no reason for Space Force to borrow Marines from the Navy, when they could just as easily have their own (or maybe borrow Airborne Infantry from the army) - whether they are called "Space Marines" or "Space Infantry" or whatever.
