....for information on World War II Snipers, and the evolution of their craft....Ok, so that's a weird subject, I agree, but I came on this photo of some German Soldiers and what looks to be the most bizarre "Bear Ghillie" I've ever seen......
Dude is dressed as a friggin' Polar Bear, fer crissakes. Who thought THAT was a good idea? No wonder they lost the War.
On the other hand, and showing the "softer" side of Sniping, here's a photo of a family of present day Snipers, going on a Sunday stroll, looking for a nice place to lay out their blankets and have a picnic.......
I'm the one carrying the bag of hot dogs up toward the front......
Heh.

Holy Cow!! Who said those Krauts had no sense of humor? That snuffy on the far left in the coal scuttle helmet is the spittin' image of one I have in an old scrap book of another snuffy aged 19 who now uses a Greek handle. Different uniform though.
