Good to see that big army is giving their infantry guys some good gear. USASOC has always been nice to us

yea i wish i woulda made it through our deployment because USASOC was looking for me and wanted to talk to me because of my language and grunt skills, i speak arabic and aramaic/assyrian. So i was in their crosshairs for SF, i would've liked it.

but i was glad i was with the 25th outa schofield hawaii. real small unit, everyone takes care of each other. better than those huge 101st and 82nd and ft. hood units.

Tell me about it; I was at bragg for couple of years before I went to group. We had hawaii national guard infantry guys attached to us one year we were deployed to the Philippines; good group of guys too.

I like the orange lenses and almost went with those. It's about time for a new set of lenses on mine...too scratched up.

You might have just sold me on them! I like the photochromatic lens, that should be helpful for me. Do you know anything about the 555nm lens? Is that the darkest they have? I can't find any other information about that specific lens. I guess I need to call them or a sunglass shop that sells them.

These are the Maui Jim glasses I have, called Paradise model 506-02. They are so light you can hardly tell they are on your face.

Hadn't heard of them before but thanks for pointing them out. I like the style of the Altura's and the Nuvino's....may have to pickup a pair.

I have a pair of Serengettis that I wear sometimes, but most of the time I wear my Oakley Twitch sunglasses.
