JustChuteMeNow 0 #3 April 26, 2008 Well as far as I know most militaries prefer function over fashion. Think of how stupid the average person is and realize that statistically half of them are stupider than that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
virgin-burner 1 #4 April 26, 2008 on the upside of that is, if they burn in, they have one last moment of fun playing hide n'seek! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

JustChuteMeNow 0 #8 April 26, 2008 Hell I don't buy camo anything because I could never find it. However, the military made sure that I had matching outfits with all the other guys in my unit so that we could play the ultimate hide and seek together.

GravityGirl 0 #12 April 26, 2008 My standard joke in the gear store is: "Welcome to Skydive San Diego.... would you like that in black or camo?" But that's because a good portion of our jumpers are military and it's just cheaper that way. LOL. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!

iambeav2 0 #13 April 26, 2008 That's actually really good, even though I don't like camo...I bet those customs cost $$......it's not the fact that you don't appreciate what you have until it's gone...it's the fact that you don't appreciate what you have until someone appreciates it for you!

happythoughts 0 #14 April 26, 2008 At Quincy, the local national guard ran the air traffic. They would stroll through the main landing area in their camos with a cup of coffee, chatting, and paying no attention. I told them, "If I am landing and don't see you and you get dropped, think of it as a compliment to your skill at not being seen." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

virgin-burner 1 #16 April 26, 2008 i was under the impression that your flying-skills would skyrocket proportionally to the percentage of surface covered in camo! so, what you're telling me, this is not true!? “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

GravityGirl 0 #25 April 26, 2008 Okay. This thread has just inspired me. I'm gonna organize a hybrid. I'll collect as many jumpers as I can find with gawd aweful tie-dye and counter balance it with a bunch of dudes in camo. Is this image funny only in my head? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies!
