Ghillie’s Day Parade
April 20th, 2009 | The Wires | Posted by Rob Curtis
I came across this image while searching the wires for Frontline Photos candidates this morning. While the sight of these Iranian snipers parading in ghullie suits might give a toddler nightmares, I don’t think the notoriously inaccurate AK47s they are toting do much for their image as deadly marksmen. Arresting image from Behrouz Mehri via Getty, though.

Ghillie Suits Says:
December 22nd, 2009 at 9:42 pmThe ghillie suits all look the same. I’m suprised that they went with a store bought ghillie suit instead of making their own. They don’t have any BDU clothing behind them but I guess that makes sense due to the heat over there.
