Ok, now this is deadly serious...After looking at various websites I need advice as I have reached the stage in life where I am easily confused..:confused:

1. What is a 'combat Mug'...if it's washed in a sink with other items,does it start fighting?
2. A 'Tactical Wallet' ...if allowed to, will it bimble off on it's own, do a recce and come back with a sitrep?
3.A 'Survival' pillow..honest..
4.'Special Forces' waterproof matches..(hang on I'm havin' trouble typing...)
5. 'Covert Operations Vest'...it's got 14 pouches and a holster on it and a load capacity of about 50 kilos...Covert..mmm?
6. And the top prize..'Tent pegs as issued to Elite Forces'..pack of 10..a bargain.
Answers on a postcard to Wicca at 'Special Secret HQ'...:p :lmao: :lmao:

Makes me remember a similar curiosity from my Army days.

Some folk were so 'army barmy' that some even used to write their Orders with DPM pens. I always used to think that if the only thing keeping you from being seen was a camoflague pen, something's gone wrong somewhere!

Well a Combat Mug I suspect is a mug that you'd stick on your hands to fight with.. even better if it was DPM that way they'd never see you hitting them and wonder who it was.. ;)

The Tactical Wallet, hmm. Is that one that hides from you when you need it most and are looking for it with a queue of 50 people behind you at the petrol station?

Special Forces matches eh? Perhaps a bit like unseen forces, from the beyond? Or is it you need an insane amount of force to light them, thus being special...

The Covert Operations Vest, isn't that a modern version of the old 'board game' Operations?

Elite Tent pegs? Possibly same bunch that made the special matches... :D

I have a "tactical wallet" - when she thinks I might spend too much, SWMBO hides it!

As for "Elite tent pegs" - I saw some titanium ones the other day - they certainly had an elite price.

The "Special Forces waterproof matches" are actually white phosphorous grenades, relabled to get past export restrictions... ;)

I lost one of them in the woods.
It was the silver one.
I had that one with me because I could not find the cammo one when I was packing....."

I'm beginning to think my genuinely posed original questions are not being treated seriously by you rabble. Actually I know a Polish girl who used to bump start armoured personnel carriers when she was in the Polish army, Firebreather those cammo knicks.... got any in 46 waist? (she's a big girl)..;) :lmao:
