What kind of uniforms do soldiers wear?
As far as modern uniforms go, the soldier wears both 8-pocket fatigue pants outfitted with durable material and seams and a fatigue smock that is a long-sleeved shirt that is also rugged and durable and have Velcro pads on the shoulders and each side of the chest for placeing insignias and unit patches. The U.S. Military leads the way in advancing uniforms with the adoption of digital uniforms. Currently, the Marines wear MARPAT (MARine PATtern), a camouflage that is made up of many tiny squares of different woodland colors to hide the wearer. MARPAT is available in winter, desert and woodland patterns. The Army has a similar type called ACU (Army Combat Uniform) and is also based on digital squares. However, the army version sports variations on gray and very light green/blue on their uniforms. Finally, the Air Force has developed a similar pattern based on digital squares and the tiger stripe pattern. All 3 uniforms help to mask a soldiers IR (InfraRed) signature.

Q: What did the Army wear in WW2?AnswerSoldiers were issued uniforms, boots, helmets and equipment and their weapons when they went to war. Each country had their own design and color of uniforms.

When should a street be double stripe vs single stripe?
This has nothing to do with Tigers, or Army Chevrons. The traffic laws are as follows- Double Solid stripe- No Passing from Lane to Lane. Single broken stripe on one side- passing permitted on side that has broken stripe. (the other being solid) that is the traffic law regarding single and double pavement stripes in New Jersey. Obviously, there is normally no passing allowed on bridges or tunnels- and a triangular pennant shaped sign indicating ( No Passing) is used in areas where the solid stripe-broken stripe scheme is impractical- as perhaps tunnels and bridges.

What does the yellow stripe on the Army uniform trousers mean?
this stripe refers to Artillery Men. By the early 19th Century each branch of the US armed forces was assigned a 'facing' colour and for the Artillery the colour was scarlet. By 1834 collars and cuffs of the jacket were trimmed with red surrounded by two cords of yellow. As a further distinction, officers and NCO's wore trim down the seams of trousers. Later, Artillery companies serving in the Mexican war, 1846-1847 were issued with uniforms that differed from the other corps by having a 3/4 inch stripe down the seams of the trousers. With the development of high velocity arms and ammunition in the early 1900's, coloured stripes disappeared in favour of drab uniforms. In 1924, uniforms were not attractive and to add some colour a stripe on the trousers, to be colour of the arm of the service, was introduced. With the advent of the 1940's war uniforms lost their colour. In later years a new regulation provided the army with a Dress Uniform, and for Artliiery Men, a Yellow stripe down the trousers
