rest in peace. As far as I know he is officially still MIA.
Man! I wake up And there's all kinds of killer pics & info on here! You guys really know your sh*t! I knew a few guys before I joined the army back in N.Y. in the late 80's from the local VVA a SEAL, couple Green Berets and we'd talk some, but not in much detail because i wasn't too much into it. I always wished I'd rememberd their names and a bit more of thier info so I could get back in touch with them, oh well. Anyway, I thought I knew alot on the war and spec ops part of it, but I'm learning all kinds of stuff on here. Thanks again guys!

The really interesting thing about the above photo is the seal in the middle with the typical seal face paint, that was actually from 2 different tubes of face paint, one green one Loam, made by Max Factor or Revelon that combined the face paint and skitto repellant, thats why when you see the seals and every inch is covered in face paint, it sure as hell wasnt from one of those US Army tubes of harder than cement face paint tubes!! That stuff will take off a layer of skin!!!

Does anyone have pics of the SOG CCN RT Indigo? Especially timeframe 1971-1972??
Thx.
Damn Paul, you really know your sh*t!The really interesting thing about the above photo is the seal in the middle with the typical seal face paint, that was actually from 2 different tubes of face paint, one green one Loam, made by Max Factor or Revelon
Ha, ha, yeah, I alway felt like a puss bitchin' about it but that's 100% true!it sure as hell wasnt from one of those US Army tubes of harder than cement face paint tubes!! That stuff will take off a layer of skin!!!
The hard-stick stuff smells good though!
Yea the secret is to either heat it up with a lighter, or use baby oil or moskitto repellannt first, goes on a little easier, but still, not too good for the complextion!!! Instant blackheads!!!!!
