I think you would stand out like a sore thumb in that outfit hunting the Talis....

Good point...but I'd be at home in the Philippines...Lordknows I spent enough time in the jungles down there trackin'NPA... The desert is much more dfficult...you use the terrain to mask your movement whenever possible, or move at night...

When I was learning to fly in Eastern Washington, which is practically desert in places, the National Guard would often be camping on the outskirts of the airport property practicing something or another, and from the ground you could see the tents, and their trucks. Then they put those big desert camouflage *tarps* draping everything, and they disappeared. At least, thy disappeared if you didn't know that there weren't really mounds and rocks there. Especially from the air. They just disappeared.

Hey.... When you were in the Phillippines, did you see huge bright yellow spiders called "banana spiders"?

My jarhead friend (he was a medic) told me they had big yellow spiders that would drop down out of the trees, but I wonder if he was pulling my leg about them being yellow!
