—”Was your buddy one of those that used hunters mouth wash, bar soap & toothpaste?”

No soap showers and brushed his teeth with salt water for about a week ahead.

Also, anise hard candy when in the field and some foods he did not eat??? I can’t remember.

If he has seen this article he would be washing his clothes to remove any soap.

That little tidbit about night vision cheaters seeing soap residue is pretty much useless info since none of our recent enemies weren’t noted for bathing. But I do remember our Lurps being coached up on not using after shave, mints, scented soap or anything else that did not smell like jungle or desert-—if we could smell it so could they!

“washing his clothes to remove any soap.”
Then his wife added some dryer sheets in the pockets as they hung up to dry...to keep his camos fresh?

LOL. I fart, eat, throw stuff on from storage and hike up on the Montana bench. Sit down, wind left-to-right. Watch the bucks chase the does, and take me pic at 360 yards with 6.5PRC within 15 minutes..

I’m a blessed man.
