What's the difference between the green and blue uniform?

[–] faythofdragons@slrpnk.net 29 points 21 hours ago (3 children)

What branch of military they're in. Green is army/marine, blue is navy/airforce/space force.

Isn't the marines uniform black? Or is it something for the lower rank only

[–] faythofdragons@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 hour ago

You're probably thinking of their "dress blues". Its like the military equivalent of a formal suit, they get worn to parades and weddings and stuff. Every branch is a little different, but the dress blues for the Marine Corp is a really dark navy.

forgot about space force, besides that netflix show, haven't heard anything about it

I wonder what space force do all day.

Yep, our satellite is still up there physics is continuing to work, we'll check again in 10 minutes.

It's not like they have any human assets to order around, everyone in space is either a civilian or not an American citizen anyway. It's not as if Russia is likely to invade the moon or anything

They're the two in the front row, second and third from the left. Diagonal silver buttons.

Thanks! I kinda guessed that but didn't want to assume.
