I don't think the SAF is copying the US uniform wholesale. They just plan to follow the digital camouflage pattern that is currently seen on the US Army's uniform. The colour may be different. May still remain green for jungle warfare or may change to grey to reflect the changing mindset to fight in urban areas. The digital camouflage pattern offers better camouflage than the traditional SAF striped uniforms so they decided to change it.

Anyway the uniform is not supposed to be good looking or anything. It's supposed to be functional.

^Tangawizi is just mad cuz it's American...if it's Spanish army uniform she'd piss her pants. (i'm kidding) It's weird how the old Singaporean uniforms were American BDU's. haha. why complain now?

I wear those everyday...and I agree that the colors aren't the best. It's just the army's excuse of putting an urban suit and try to minimize all the uniforms we had (same reason why the the class greens are cut out and only the blues are used now)

Dear all, I'm an army wife and my husband is a SAF regular army officer.

One of the many primary reasons I married my husband is because of his dashing uniform. We were fixed up by someone we knew mutually and had many email conversations over a month before we met. He sent me a picture of him in his no.4 uniform and immediately, I fell in love with the way he looks in it (i didn't say i fell for him immediately). I felt myself swooning.

When we began dating, he invited me once to a parade in his camp and when I saw him in person in his no.4 uniform, I was sure and told myself I will make this man my husband. The whole get-up made my knees weak. On our wedding, he wore his no.1.

Anyway, I was horrified to find out that SAF was going to change the no. 4 uniform. What was worse is that the new uniform is unspeakably ugly. It looks like pyjamas and the camo print is hideous. The colours are gross too, with a lot of brown, very weird, looks like crap. The colors of the current one are perfect and manly. And the camo print of this current one is perfect too. The cut, lapels, badges, collar, cutting are perfect.

I don't understand why they would change such a nice and flattering uniform. The current SAF army no.4 is the nicest and smartest and manliest army combat uniform throughout all the armies in the world.

I would like to ask if wives are asked for their opinions before this change was decided? Who decided this? As wives of our regular soldiers, we are in close contact with the uniforms as much as the soldiers are. And it is also a large part of our lives.

I fell for my husband because of the dashing and manly no.4 uniform. Many many other army wives believe that uniform is extremely flattering and sexy.

Can we seek some explanation or redress in some way? icon_sad.gif
