The Uniform Components of United Nations Peacekeepers

[@harryb8945]

I was a stormam at the British army's operational mobilisation centre, and use to issue UN specific equipment to troops going on related operations. In the British army at least we issued official un pieces but not the quota or in the packs that you described. Each individual recieved one beret, a cap badge and two shoulder patches. These where all separate. We never had the brassards, scarfs or baseball caps. Although I know the caps where sometimes obtained in theatre.

[@davidharvey8179]

In East Timor we received the blue baseball cap, beret and brassard with helmet covers and the cravat being there but not issued. We always wore the baseball cap all the time with brassards while in DPCU in public.

Minster of External Affairs in the Canadian govt is co-credited as being the 'father of peacekeeping. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for his involvement in resolving the Suez Crises. In my 35 yrs in the army, I deployed on 2 UN missions and instructed on the international UN Mil Observers' Crse. Host nations should keep their own uniforms, IMO. I nearly choked the first time I was issued a UN beret and metal cap badge. The beret was an enormous pizza and the badge felt like it weighed a pound. I was able to buy a half decent beret from Pakistan but was stuck with the 'rodeo belt buckle' metal badge. By the time of my next deployment, we had established a PK Trg Sp Centre that was on a base with a good kit shop. I bought a new beret and one of the smaller cloth/bullion UN badges and had the base tailor sew it on. Also on that tour we were issued blue cloth helmet covers and the unique Canadian wide-brim Tilley hat in UN blue. In 7 months I never wore the helmet and the Tilley hat - just once. I never, ever wore a silly scarf and the issued brassards were crap. We just had the badge sewn directly onto all our uniforms. While spooling up for a third deployment, I purchased a fresh beret and badge. However, that deployment was cancelled. I had many friends deploy to Croatia/Bosnia in the early 90s. They were passed on used, crappy painted helmets where most of the paint was worn off. The Remfs in the support unit started getting cloth covers on or about 93 but not the grunts. Unfortunately, the UN is bloated, bureaucratic and inefficient. On missions, it is the military people that make it work.

I have two Canadian fabric blue helmet covers. One is for the PASGT helmet, used from the mid 90s onwards, primarily in the former Yugoslavia. The other is a more current one meant for the CG634. Prior to that we painted our helmets, so I don't believe there was a fabric cover for the M1 in Canadian use.

I've always imagined a standing UN Peace Keeping Corps having a solid colour uniform, specifically one that's in the colour range of a light tan/beige, like eggshell to herringbone. I remember watching a movie about the Yugoslav war as a child where I think I saw French PKs in such uniforms with powder/sky blue helmets and a stark white APC. They had a really surreal look about them, compared to the solid forest green uniforms of the serbs, or the motley assortment the bosniaks pulled together.

[@qthedisaster1730]

@@qthedisaster1730 I'm not sure, I was young then, I only remember bits and pieces. But I do remember that it wasn't in English.

[@Otterdisappointment]

But realistically a UN military unit would be wearing camo pattern uniforms on a modern battlefield as national militaries and NATO task forces do maybe using blue markings while actual peacekeepers will definitely keep wearing blue light body armor or just vests and blue helmets either of a U.S. or more generic style or national (Germany, France, China). I’d imagine the shade of blue would get darker as the unit is denoted as more offensive with armor also getting thicker not that thick. The deepest blue would be like a NATO specific uniform rather than a peacekeeper uniform mixed with other such camouflage and solid colors in specific environments or as the situation warrants for ID or presenting a more benign presence. I’m gonna copy this actually.

[@chrisd8866]

Camouflage Centre Europe began to be issued in 1991, but French peacekeepers in the Yugoslav wars in the 90's still used the previous olive green uniforms, except for Kosovo in '99 when by then the new CCE was used. And I remember that movie No Man's Land had French soldiers in it wearing green uniforms and blue helmets so it's likely to be this one.

@Uniform History I hadn't actually thought specifically about psychological attributes of the color 'Blue' as used by UN Peacekeeping Forces until you mentioned it in the video. I was reminded of a pamphlet or handout that I received in Law School that discussed choosing the right necktie to wear based on what you were doing that day, your social position or standing as it relates to the goal to be achieved, and the overall impression you want to present. For example, as a community leader meeting with contractors to discuss their lagging progress on a project for the city's infrastructure, a thick, silk tie in a middle to dark shade of red, with no other colors present, is good choice to convey that you are confident with powerful leadership qualities. Each primary color and its several shades have many different 'meanings'. As you stated for U.N. Blue, it does convey a feeling of peace but more specifically of Peaceful Authority & Trust. Whereas, midnight blue conveys a feeling closer to Absolute Authority.

[@CarrotConsumer]

What a load of nonsense, lol.

[@jacksonlee6760]

[@JoeWalker98]

I like the topic of deciding the UN uniform. It doesn't have to be camo, nor does it have to be made solely for war. With the blue helmet and gear, any camo sort of clashes, whilst also opening up colours less seen on the battlefield. I like the idea similar to the US blueberry camo for their navy, in the sense of choose a scheme that'll hide dirt and wear common in their duties, whilst also stepping away from the classic military colours. A more workwear design to it would also probably be a good step, such as the oversized hanging pockets you see on tradesmen trousers would give a nice practical boost while being uncommon for war

[@barrackobamar]

That blue camo was ugly and flammable I’m glad we don’t use it anymore

[@PrograError]

IMO UN peacekeeping uniform would be fine like that, but if it descended into a war/ conflict, Camo is still better. In that case, something like the UKR conflict would be better... It's still a lot more visible but still a lot more subdued than the full blue helmet cover. A band of blue around doesn't destroy the camo too much.

That would be cool to look at the uniforms and equipment for the ICCS (international control commission and supervision) for the Vietnam War. It was activated twice, once in 1954 with three different nations of different alliances and another in 1973.

[@taiwandxt6493]

The majority of them are viable, I just think we have let the flaws and few failures of peacekeeping keep us from seeing their actual utility. I mean, not that it isn't without merit since those failures point out the glaring problems with Peacekeeping doctrine of the time. However, I think you, like many others, have a vision of Peacekeeping that, if put into practice, would only serve to escalate conflicts rather than resolve them which kinda defeats the entire point of Peacekeeping. I think we all have the idealized vision in our minds of Peacekeepers being sent in and shooting up both sides of a war to get them to back down. Like, I think we all want them to be like an additional player in a war that fights all sides. Generally doesn't, and shouldn't, work that way. Romeo Dallaire put it best, the UN Peacekeepers are supposed to be referees, not coaches or players. The UN tried it that way being a player in Somalia and actually went to war with the SNA (The prelude and context to Black Hawk Down), and that did diddly squat. There are times when that is necessary, such as in Somalia, but it should not be default doctrine. Now, this doesn't mean that the opposite should be true and the UN just observe, like they were forced to do in Rwanda or Bosnia, because we all know how that turned out. But, it's a balance between getting involved to keep the peace and promote international stability but not in a way that'll make it look like you're just getting involved in the war. Being a peacekeeper is among the toughest military jobs on Earth because that balance is hard to weigh. Though, again, this doesn't mean that Peacekeepers should not be allowed to shoot, even offensively in some instances, nor does it mean they do not at all. They actually do a lot, both back during the time of the self defense doctrine and today, and they are valiant soldiers. It's just that a strict ROE is necessary in order to be a peacekeeper. Sorry for the yapping, just really passionate about the topic and have a lot to say.

[@jfu5222]

It was stated that the shortage of berets prompted the issue of blue helmet liners. They were worn for identification only. In basic training, back in 1984, we wore helmet liners except when on the firing range. It identified us as recruits, we all hated them, the humbling feeling was probably intentional. I never wore the liner by itself after basic training and within a year we were issued kevlar helmets.

[@richardsawyer5428]

Much the same as when British Armed Forces personnel aid us civvies, they simply add a cheap hi-viz vest to their kit. It depends on supply chain costs and what each individual peacekeeper is used to. If serviceman/woman habitually keeps certain bits of kit in certain pockets or is used to, and tweaked their kit to make life easier for them whilst on active duty then keep that uniform and just add the cheap UN identifiers.

The idea of UN peacekeepers wearing camouflage is really a bit agains the purpose. Ideally just the presence of UN peacekeepers should be what stops conflict, so making them as visible as possible furthers that goal, but on the other hand that does also put them in a tough spot when they do have to fight and could benefit from being able to hide, after all even police forces expecting to benefit from camouflage will still use it. The only way to get the best of both worlds would be something like a reversible uniform like you saw on older Finnish and Belgian uniforms, but with a peacekeeper/combat set rather than the woodland/snow and woodland/desert sets of the Finnish and Belgian uniforms.

If I was to choose the un solid colour uniform, it would be od green bdus or jungle fatigues as they are tried and true cuts an un forces still do get involved in combat from time to time, besides, it looks cooler then light blue solid colour

[@hellomoto2084]

India's rapid action force is not a part of Indian army and their own color is blue , You showed a pic of them with wearing helmets which denote RAF. Or rapid action force , and not only in Kashmir , in any other part of India when raf ( a police force ) is deployed they use blue color similar to UN. So that example of yours was nonsensical.

[@thehistorian1232]

Watch it again. One of the soldiers in the photo has a blue UN-marked riot shield.

[@PrograError]

I wonder if a standing army based purely in defensive posture would have been good... maybe even pseudo regional armies for certain regions (tho EU area would pretty much be just NATO...) In conflict, the uniform would prob be like those of UKR, but with blue tapes or blue cloth stripe. If it has gone into that situation, claiming ya “blue helmet” is a bit too late. tho unless you are purely part of the UNFOR, your own uniform would be more appropriate...

at this point I don't know if the people here are just joking or are serious

[@LoveHammerMan]

Never assume its a joke after 2016...

[@baneofbanes]

They’re serious. They only say their bullshit is ironic or a joke when they’re called out for it.

And now, we'll take a look at the uniformed kids PJs my auntie gave me and my cousins at a christmas party, circa 1998.

Even though i hate the un, i find everything police and military related about them, extremely fascinating

[@leonel9683]

Why do you hate the UN? I'm genuinely interested. The only reason I can think of is their lack of reaction.

@@leonel9683 The very idea of an institution with global authority is contemptible to me because, when it eventually becomes oppressive (as all systems of authority inevitably do), there is nowhere to run. At least when a national government becomes tyrannical, you can escape to another country. What do you do when it encompasses the world?

[@gloriouseagle433]

@@possumpatrol45 Your theory of statecraft is deeply flawed. A great deal of autocracies have in fact reformed their way out of autocracy completely naturally. Besides, the UN has nowhere near enough power (and likely never will) to actually control any of its larger, more powerful member-states-- it was designed that way. Better to appreciate what they *can* do, which is save hundreds of millions of lives every year and preserve peace treaties (since a majority of peacekeeping operations are in fact successful).

Not gonna die, those blue accessories are one of few things that go hard about UN Peacekeepers...if only they didn't feel so damn useless as a force smh (not really their fault per say but i digress)

Hey. Let's make appreciate the fact they at least do not fight for an extremely corrupted and violent regime

[@baneofbanes]

@@yeboxxx_channel_2505I mean a lot of them do, just not when they’re acting as peacekeepers

But they aren't useless. Most operations are successful. It's just this weird psyop lie that's been regurgitated god knows how long for no reason; it has zero bearing in reality.

They ain't wearing blue during Korean War, why is that?

[@gloriouseagle433]

It wasn't really a peacekeeping operation, just a war under the nominal supervision of the UN. Plus it was before the Suez Crisis if I'm not mistaken.
