The UNSC Navy dress uniform differs little from those worn by members of the [[United States|United States Navy]] five hundred years previously. It consists of a white jacket, white trousers, and a peaked cap for males and a tricorn hat for females. Those ranked [[Commander (UNSC)|Commander]] and above wear gold "scrambled egg" oak leaves on their caps, while Flag Officers may wear aiguillettes with the jacket.

The Service Uniform is the standard uniform for garrison and shipboard wear. At least three major versions of this uniform exist, with the latest variant being introduced some time after the [[Human-Covenant War]].

The [[2531]] service uniform consisted of a double-breasted dark gray tunic, bearing the seal of the [[United Nations Space Command Defense Force]], with the wearer's surname printed above the seal. It was worn with matching trousers, a [[pistol]] belt, and a cap also bearing the UNSCDF seal. Should the officer be in command of a [[starship]], the [[Ship Emblem]] would be worn on the right shoulder. Medals and ribbons were not worn with this uniform.
====[[2553]]====

The [[2553]] service dress variant consists of a gray shirt and a matching pair of trousers, secured with a belt. In times of [[war]] a pistol is worn on the belt. A name tag displaying the officer's last name is mounted on the right hand side of the uniform while ribbons are worn on the left hand side. Rank insignia is displayed on the shirt cuffs, collar, and shoulder boards. Medals and caps are typically not worn with this uniform, though [[Fleet Admiral]] [[Terrence Hood|Sir Terrence Hood]] was an exception to this rule.

It should be noted that [[Captain (Navy)|Captain]] [[Jacob Keyes]] wore an unusual uniform variant that was coloured a lighter gray than usual. Rank insignia was worn with ribbons and a name tag on the left hand side of the uniform.

In [[2552]], non-commissioned officers wore a reddish-coloured variant of the uniform that apparently did not display ribbons or rank insignia.
These uniforms offer only a little protection and are not meant for combat personnel. Though they do come in a variety of colors such as blue, red, orange, purple, and yellow. Such colors differ for what job they do, though they are not known for sure, personnel wearing orange, blue, and red can be seen operating computers on the bridge, cryo bays, and anywhere else.
