This relates to the period 2266 to 2373. 2266 equates to [TNG] Season 3; well into that year the [TNG] Seasons 1 and 2 uniforms were slightly amended. The amended uniforms endure for the rest of [TNG] i.e. up to and including 2370, a year before the [Voyager] series begins. This means that the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D crew carry on wearing the uniform even though a version new to tv viewers is seen in the next Star Trek series [DS9] and whose first two Seasons are aired at the same time as the last two Seasons of [TNG]; that new version is presented as simply a variant of the existing uniforms system.

For the new [Voyager] series, no changes to the uniform were made and so the USS Voyager crew wear the same uniform variants as seen in the first two Seasons of [DS9]. However, a re-styled Starfleet emblem/combadge is introduced for [ST VII: Generations] and for the [Voyager] series and it is thus adopted by Starfleet from 2371.

The new emblem/combadge appears in [ST VII: Generations], [DS9], [ST VIII: First Contact], [Voyager] of course, [ST IX: Insurrection] and [ST X: Nemesis].

INTRODUCTION

This uniform, which I call 'field uniform' as this particular version is not mentioned in sources as far as I know, is seen in [#167 Friendship One]. It is very similar in style to those seen in [#16 Learning Curve] and [#58 Blood Fever]. Although standard duty uniform is worn on away missions, special garments such as the environmental suit (described here) and the field uniform are worn whenever particular conditions are expected. The generic field uniform is therefore employed by USS Voyager crew between 2371 and 2377.

 

DESCRIPTION AND SCREENSHOTS


Lt. Joe Carey, R.I.P.
The uniform is a grey-coloured single-piece garment manufactured from thick resilient material, and similar in style to those seen in [#16 Learning Curve] and [#58 Blood Fever].

The uniform features a stripe of colour or piping that runs horizontally across the upper chest and down the inside of the arms. The colour of the piping denotes the division of the wearer. The colour is in accord with the style of the Starfleet standard duty uniform that the Voyager crew normally wears, with the division colours being, as usual, red for command and conn, yellow for security and engineering, and blue for science and medical.


[#167 Friendship One]

Rank pips are worn on the front right-hand side of the collar, and the Starfleet emblem/combadge is worn in the customary position on the left breast.
