Camouflage. Is it still needed?

Yes we still need camouflage. In an age of deadly weapons where a single second can make the difference between who lives and who dies the need to shoot first is important now more than ever. Everyone here seems to be thinking of modern war as something taking place behind a screen or from a cockpit. You forget that wars are still mostly fought by troops on the ground, and camouflage is what wins or loses a combat encounter. Just look at the fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan, camouflage is key.
