Much Better Than Ghillie Suits, If You Ask Me

Rob found some pics in April of Iranian snipers on parade, so I’ll respond with this week’s parade gem… ashame the weapons don’t match:

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.
