Green cloaks not scout exclusive
Under Uniform & Equipment it's currently stated that only the Scouts are wearing the green cloaks.

But in chapter 45 we see Hannes wear a similar cloak, though with the garrison symbol on the back and later the same chapter the police members that accompany the scouts on the mission to get Eren back also have their own cloaks with the Unicorn symbol on their back.

This leads me to believe that all units are issued such cloaks, not just the scouts. NoNickNeeded (talk) 13:55, September 11, 2013 (UTC)

No, it doesn't say that it's only for Scouting Legion, but that they are the ones seen wearing them most frequently. 14:28, September 11, 2013 (UTC)

Additional Military Divisions
In both the anime and manga, there are two additional divisions of the Military mentioned: the Training Corps and the Technical Division. The three mentioned in this article are simply the three that the instructor speaks of, the regular-service divisions that the trainees can enter once graduating. However, these other divisions are no less part of the Military. The Training Corps even has a symbol: the crossed swords over the four-part shield. The instructors have the same symbol, so it is obviously not a symbol just for trainees. In fact, the instructor from volume 1 of the manga even wears exactly the same uniform as the trainees (as in, not the long coat), the only difference being a dark-colored sash around his left arm.

The other division spoken of is the Technical Division. This unit is mentioned twice in the early part of the story: once when Eren is asking Armin why he isn't joining "Technical" due to his high scores from training, implying that it is still part of the Military, and again during the "currently disclosable information" section when talking about the 3DMG and how the exhaust and pressure-regulation systems are maintained in secret by the "Technical Division."

Granted we don't have an emblem (at least not one I know of) for the technical group, but we definitely have one for the Training Corps. I propose that we add at least some mention of the Training Corps, along with their symbol and their purpose in the Military. --KenoSarawa (Talk|Contribs) 22:36, November 14, 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, the Training Corps have their own symbol, and we have yet to add info on it. On the Technical Division, I'm not too sure, however. It seems to be a special division within the Garrison, because it's stated that trainees can only apply for one of the three divisions (being the Survey Corps, Garrison or Military Police).


 * If this turns out to be true, I suspect only trainees who are the best in academics (like Armin) are allowed to join.  h fc 2 X  00:20, November 15, 2013 (UTC)
