This is the uniform the US Air Force wants to implement. Looks very futuristic.

We all know military women in the future wear tight one-piece uniforms. This is so 20th century.

As a current USAF airman I can confirm that this motion was taken some time ago, and was never passed. The dress blue uniform was recently changed to reflect the modern service dress we see today, and with the additional shift to exclusively ABUs and sage boots, another complete change in uniform was not implemented.

Yep. And the Star Wars meme circulated through our inboxes with AF-like speed.

This is the futuristic uniform the Air Force should be using. Not a poor knockoff of Marine blues.

Anyone else creeped out by those faces? They're just staring off in different directions with those weird stupidly placid expressions.

1918 called, they said they like the new uniform!

Really, I do like it too.

What it looks like... Is shit.

Uncomfortable neck collar! Belt way to high and meaningless! The pockets better be useful. I hate when the pockets are fake :(
