Combat Uniform
The combat uniform of the Defense Directorate in 2491 CE is a tight-fitting white ensemble noted for a tunic with a distinctive edged yoke with popped collar, distinctive armbands at the bicep, and distinctive white yet striped leggings with fitted boots.
The tunic itself is unique in construction, whose distinctive one-inch edging flap ran between the breastplate and throat, straight around the front and back of the body; the popped collar effect could either be popped or seated in a recess around the neck. For pilots, a gold wing pin rests at the center of said yoke (BR25: Film, "Awakening"), while pilots with silver eagles wear both (BR25: "Return of the Fighting 69th").
On the wearer's right bicep a rainbow-colored armband was worn, atop which a logo of the Earth Directorate rests as a separate patch element. Contrasting to the wearer's left bicep was a smaller slate gray armband featuring a box device.
The uniforms are typically worn with a helmet by Directorate forces when either piloting a craft, or performing military duties in the field (BR25: Film, "Awakening", "Return of the Fighting 69th", "Buck's Duel to the Death").
