I selected the WWII uniforms.

Notice the the proposed futuristic (Star Trek) uniforms.   WTH?

That was interesting. I spent 11 years in the Marines and I absolutely hate the greens, I feel like a bus driver wearing it. I got a kick out of the star trek uniforms though. I couldn't imagine wearing them but I found it surprising that the "establishment" would even entertain the idea of designing a uniform so radically differant front the norm. I bet the air force will catch wind of this and will be the first ones to issue the star trek uniform.

I put my $0.02 in.  Basically said WW2 one was cool, star trek is ugly.

Sent it to my brother, too.

The "I really wanted to be a Marine" look:

If I wore that I'd go looking for Marines so they could kick my ass.

The "Star Fleet Academy" look:

Army formal wear suitable for Halloween parties AND Trekker conventions!

The "Starship Troopers" look:

Career Sergeant Zim would be proud.

And finally the "Blatant Star Trek rip-off" look:

It's dead Jim!

Since I am not in the Army, I will post this link on a Star Trek website so the trekkies can vote to get their uniform made into a REAL Army suit.  Welcome to the future boys, spandex pants with no zippers and a built in "banana pouch". The chicks will dig you now.

delta is dead on so as a vet I voted for the star trek uniform. I do not have to wear it;)
