How about one in pink to commemorate the Race for the Cure?

And another one rainbow for gay pride, and another one red for all of the communists out there.

Facepalm. The military can really make some stupid oversights if it tries hard enough.

LOL. Good grief. Anyone who has ever been in the military understands only too well the capacity for brainless beauracracy...

Sounds like a typical army SNAFU, to tell the truth.

Holy cow! It only took them six years to figure this out? Who was the Einstein with the brainstorm?

Or maybe decked out like the #39 car, as a recruiting tool for Taliban defectors.

The first $100 Aimpoint type sights were used in the early 70’s. The Army didn’t mass issue them until the early 90’s. 20 years.
IED resistant vehicles are fifty/sixty years old. The US military has just had them for five( ? ) years.
And other stuff. None of which was the concern of flag rank officers.
Pathetic.

BTW - Bad pic of camel link.
I can think that a massive, 8 wheeled diesel smoke bleching monster is going to ‘hide’ with some tan paint. Or, maybe not.
THe nutz part is not allowing the local motor pool to repint the darn things....what’s up with that - some kind of special IR paint?

None of which was the concern of flag rank officers.Which is why Rummy's and Gates's war on the Pentagon were right on. Some of these careerist, worried about which defense contractor is going to give them a good post retirement gig, have done more harm than AQ could ever do.
