What year were these photos taken?
late 1890s i think Kurt.
that first pic is way cool...love their outfits...and i guess at the time they were in style bu now seem costumish...
loved that pic of the woman the other day by the way...with her eyes moving...was freaking my boys out with it...ha
I had never heard of the ICUS but I like to guess that maybe they use a chameleon as their mascot? I couldn't access the video (here?).
Every day I become aware of other worlds out there - a world of collectors of camouflage. I never realized before that every country has its own style of camo, and that camo can be specific to the branch of service and then the kind of work within that branch. I can't view camo as just fabric anymore. There's science and strategy to it.
Well, the one with the Nurses Uniforms could count! ha ha
I love the photo with the bear.

Great Winter Carnival Crew -- looks like either a scene from a Dickens novel!
Great photos Tony, I particularly like the first one!

you Can Say That Again Akely!
Camoflage is an interesting take for this theme. Most of the uniforms shown in people's posts are anything but: the flamboyant colors, feather, brass, epaulets - everything they wore seemed intended to show them off instead of hide them. I guess if you're going off to be cannon fodder the consolation prize is in looking swell as you go.
That certainly is a motley crew in the first picture Tony. There's something...'Dickensian' about them!
I liked you moving photo post the other day too! This first photo is so very awesome, they look to be having a very cool time together as well. The last photo is very thought provoking...it could be a great theme photo to unravel some magical mystery tour of sorts!
My first thought was Dickens when I saw your photo but it was the huge dog in the Saranac series that I really fancied.
Fun, fun, fun. I love spy novels and biographies. The movie, Argo, is out this week. Based on Mendez' account of the 1979 rescue of Americans in Tehran. The CIA ops were disguised as a camera crew. I wonder if the ICUS have their costumes?
If I saw the crew in that first photo coming down my street I would be a bit freaked out too.
Those Saranac Lake pics are fun. I'm hoping that bear was stuffed, not alive...
They look like a fun bunch to me, but who can tell what the Talibans would think, if they do, at all...
:/~

I do believe that motley crew would have the Taliban on the run. Lead by Patti, of course.
it is deemed an remarkable, stunning, simple and honest video of the strategy. I am such a fan of your respective function! I'd personally have a chew regarding sweet off the sapling any day.
