We’ve posted the couchmouflage, catmouflage, carmouflage, and satmouflage before, but the Brits got ‘em all beat. In fact, they’re so well camouflaged you just have to take my word that there are two – TWO! – British soldiers in this picture.

It's rather worrying that they're conducting a mimic battle. A mock battle is presumably good practice, but a war against mimics, animals that pretend to be a different animal, seems a little unfair, especially using top-notch camouflage like this.

I'm glad they included the disclamer that they were in fact, NOT beings from another planet.

Paul: excellent!
Remember the first rule of misdirection, meg: always claim what you're not.
And ted - excellent idea, How Not to be Seen was on Neatorama previously here: Link.

ghost
