What do you think of the US Army dress blue uniform?

Here is a photo http://www.qando.net/uploads/images/jackson.jpg
For those who think Army dress blues look like the USAF. Not even close.http://www.mass.gov/guard/Honor_Guard/files/keefe_sep11.jpg

US Army dress blues and Marine blues beside one another. In my opinion Army blues hold their own easly.http://cache.daylife.com/imageserve/04hIbe32Sn8DF/610x.jpg
Never carred for the greens as do most Soldiers I knowhttp://www.ngms.state.ms.us/doim/daphotos/images/men-class-a.jpg.
But in my opinion the Army should have went back to the old high collar like the 1902 dress blues.http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.andersonmilitaria.com/images/uniforms/U10Artillery1902.jpg&imgrefurl=http://usmilitary.about.com/b/2006/06/08/army-streamlines-service-uniform-to-one-blue-uniform.htm&h=559&w=295&sz=25&hl=en&start=12&um=1& tbnid=DcDHSzqVvHdNaM:&tbnh=133&tbnw=70&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dus%2Barmy%2Bclass%2Ba%2Buniform%26um% 3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DX

I liked the dress blues. They beat the hell out of the greens. But (and this is coming from an Army vet) nothing beats the Marines dress blues.

Personally, I think the trousers are too baggy. They need to be re-styled to be a bit more form fitting, more like the Class A green slacks. They remind me too much of the big baggy bib overalls that the old men and farmers used to wear.

Personally I like the Marine's dress blues better. I think the cut of the jacket is more flattering.

I like them but I wish they were keeping the greens instead of using the dress blues for everything which is what they are talking about doing.
