In keeping with socal_parrot's essential 'educational' theme, here's a rare photo of an undercover operative in a highly classified 'bulletproof metallic' bikini, apparently taken during a hazardous mission

Early bikinis were extremely effective, in that they provided yet another essential purpose for animal skins and so brought meaning to the lives of otherwise unhappy creatures..

Indeed. That is one of the finest-worn bikinis I've seen in quite a while.

Note however, that bikinis require occasional adjustment...

As a demonstration of the mathematical principle that "LESS IS MORE", we also can see that the string bikini has very little to recommend it as a shield against the sun... so we hope that these girls have good sense.

I could not agree more. In that spirit, another bikini.

Bikini History, cont'd

Bikinis played a crucial role in America's Civil War, as brave soldiers from both sides worked tirelessly and in astonishingly innovative ways to win the day.  Here is a photo of a covert Confederate soldier, taken immediately after a sea insertion onto a Northern beachhead, where she is engaged in an 'information gathering and morale assessment' mission.

Well, I suppose then it would be necessary to also include the contribution of the Union soldiers as well...

I dunno, looks to me like that "insertion" had the effect of making that soldier take a leak.

Establishing a beachhead might require reconnoitering for a while...
