Edible Cammo ?

Modeling Subjects Armor

This is a quote from a Time magazine article dated Aug 6 1941 and titled “Tobruk 16 Weeks Later”

A camouflage unit, fresh out of paint, improvised with captured Italian coffee (undrinkable), tomato sauce (condemned) and flour paste (plentiful).

I can see Model Master coming out with this and calling it ‘Spaghetti Suace Brown’

My question is what would be worse the smell or the flies.

LOL![:D] I think I have coffee, tomato sauce, and flour paste in my kitchen. Guess I don’t need to buy acrylic and enamel paints anymore. [(-D]

Hum…only slightly tastier than the toothpaste whitewash…

I once tried a piece of zimm that flaked off of a Panther…tastes like chicken…

Not to mention the sour-kraut inside…

Sour Kraut? OMFG That is BAD! I’m trying to eat lunch right now, and that’s leaving a bad taste in my mouth. Although it was funny. Same with MR’s comment.

Something tells me you wouldn’t find this stuff on limey armor though because it’s not “proper” and the rules must be followed. The germans were more do what they had to do in the field, and the Fuhrer be damned.

HAHAHA I’ll be damned. That’s just great. Well I think I have to concede here. Can I call a mulligan?

I have an actuial photo of this ‘edible camo’

I will post it here for your viewing pleasure.

But in all seriousness… If it got hot out, wouldnt that food start to… uh… smell. Noting like a sniper’s positing given away by the food on his face.

OR

This gives new definition to the term food fight

YO YO as an ardent fan of pizza, pasta, and lasagna (I never met a lasagna I didn’t like), I find it hard to believe that any Italian food items would be inedible except for the coffee maybe. Rick Martin
