No you can see they have no beard

Beard doesn't interfere anyway. Argument invalid.

Beard also is only aesthetic and unnecessary

"The 6.8mm round is the offspring of a project formerly known as the Enhanced Rifle Cartridge Program that put together Special Operations Command, the Army Marksmanship Unit and Remington Arms to create an alternative to the 5.56mm round currently in use across the force."

So are dress uniforms

Medals, patches, all that

Hell even ranks

Wow. So they finished evaluation of their cartridges ahead of schedule, and they developed something new together

I'm genuinely surprised

Patches and ranks help with identification

Dress uniform is old school erb at a glance

At least the marksmanship unit was in on it

O and SOC

Maybe they do know what they are up too

Why would you need to identify whether someone is in the 101st Airborne, 1st Armored etc? You don't. It's just for looks, unit pride etc

If it was ever important to know someone's affiliation you just ask them

Yeah Remington too. This all leads me to believe that we may actually be looking at a miracle

Telling the unit at a glance matters more than purely aesthetic beards

But since they now say they're not going to use brass... we likely will have to replace our ARs

Beards are like tattoos

the plot thickens

Could just learn to use a radio, map, know where your people are, etc

Completely unnecessary

Patches are like tattoos

Same for dress uniforms

Except telling engineers from infantry is valuable

Rank is unnecessary. You can identify purely with billets. Soldier, team leader, section leader, squad leader, and so on

Those would still need visual identification up close

So if you're walking around post it's important to know if that dude you just passed is a grunt or an engineer...why? Because you need to know if you can ask him to do plumbing work at your house?

Its a combat uniform retard

Class bs, what would normally be worn, dosent have that normally

But Army doesnt do that marines do

Dress uniform is what I said wasn't necessary

Why do important people wear tuxes?

Same shit

You want to change it go be a general

And where the fuck on the combat uniform does it show if you're a grunt? Nigga everyone in my brigade wore the same patch even if he was a clerk or an MP slut

But a soldier cant just add shit to his uniform

CIB shows you are a grunt

As well as having your divisions patch and not an off shoot
