As a recently retired Sailor whom had to wear the NWU, I can say confidently that I hated the choice of the blue camo. It is an idiotic choice that cost millions to develop and is unnecessary. Much like the ACU was a reaction to the Marine Corps digital pattern, it was meant to be distinctive. It comes across as more of a caricature.

I, and many others, have made the joke that the uniform camoflages you in the water if you fall overboard.
