OT- Class A Uniform Question
Just a quick question
On the army blue class "A" service uniform I notice that officer's have a colour on their rank bars. I have only seen light blue, is that the standard colour or is it colour branch thing.

It's a branch thing....
Infantry is light blue. Cavalry & Armor is yellow. Artillery is red. Medical is maroon. Quartermaster is buff. More at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_...ranch_insignia

Yep, all about branch.
Blue: Brave but.. Red: Smart and Strong Maroon: Smart, and really smart. Buff: Profile Warriors Yellow: Greatest, best, most awesome people on the planet. Chuck Norris wishes he was this good! Yeah... I think its pretty obvious what Branch I was in. *whistles innocently*

Isn't that the same colors they used to put on the stripe on a soldiers pants back in the days of the Civil War and through the Old West time period?

I believe that's still on the pants of the "mess dress" or "dress blue" uniform.

You have the color wrong for infantry -- it's blue, not yellow
