===Uniforms=== {{main|Uniforms of the United States Army}} The [[Army Combat Uniform]] (ACU) currently features a camouflage pattern known as [[Operational Camouflage Pattern]] (OCP); OCP replaced a pixel-based pattern known as [[Universal Camouflage Pattern]] (UCP) in 2019. On 11 November 2018, the Army announced a new version of 'Army Greens' based on uniforms worn during World War II that will become the standard garrison service uniform.<ref name=ArmyGreens>{{Cite web|url=https://www.army.mil/article/213650/us_army_to_roll_out_new_army_greens_uniform|title=U.S. Army to roll out new Army Greens uniform|website= Army.mil|date=11 November 2018}}</ref> The blue [[Army Service Uniform]] will remain as the dress uniform. The Army Greens are projected to be first fielded in the summer of 2020.<ref name=ArmyGreens />{{update inline|date=May 2022}} <gallery widths="200px" heights="200px"> File:2020 Army Greens Uniform.png|The 2020 Army Greens uniform File:2010 Moscow Victory Day Parade-6.jpeg|An element of the [[18th Infantry Regiment (United States)|18th Infantry Regiment]], wearing ASUs, representing the United States at the [[2010 Moscow Victory Day Parade]] </gallery> ====Berets==== [[File:Wayne Downing funeral honor guard.jpg|thumb|The Ranger Honor Platoon marching in their tan berets and former service uniform]] The [[United States military beret flash|beret flash]] of enlisted personnel displays their [[distinctive unit insignia]] (shown above). The U.S. Army's black beret is no longer worn with the ACU for garrison duty, having been permanently replaced with the patrol cap. After years of complaints that it was not suited well for most work conditions, Army Chief of Staff General [[Martin Dempsey]] eliminated it for wear with the ACU in June 2011. Soldiers who are currently in a unit in jump status still wear berets, whether the wearer is parachute-qualified or not (maroon beret), while members of [[Security Force Assistance Brigade]]s (SFABs) wear brown berets. Members of the 75th Ranger Regiment and the Airborne and Ranger Training Brigade (tan beret) and Special Forces (rifle green beret) may wear it with the Army Service Uniform for non-ceremonial functions. Unit commanders may still direct the wear of patrol caps in these units in training environments or motor pools.
