Could’ve posted in r/camouflagecirclejerk but that sub’s dead

Which is more versatile? I’m looking to get a new plate carrier for the larp, and I want something that can work in numerous environments. I have multiple sets of varying camouflage patterns, ranging from desert, arid, chaparral, tropical. But my current PC is black and I don’t like that. So… coyote brown or multicam?

Is that adult Jesus with baby Jesus or is this a heretical father+son icon? Found in an antique store

The guy working the register said he’d let it go for $125! I didn’t get it, but as a long time lurker, first time poster, I thought yall would enjoy. For those unaware, it’s typically hard to find tier 1 stuff in a surplus store like this.

Mixing hot and cold water in a plastic bag and spotted what I believe is a bat.

18M, average weight, bumps featured are on left leg. Sensitive bumps appearing in succession, the farthest left (most proximal) appeared first as a visibly pus filled bump that didn’t particularly itch like mosquito bites typically do. This initial bump appeared over 24 hours after hiking in a densely forested creek bed. The length of time it took to appear makes me think that it’s not a mosquito bites typically, also it filled with pus which is abnormal of mosquitoes.

The bump in the middle appeared a day after the first. And the most distal on the right appeared the day after that. Sensitive to touch like a cut would be. Not itchy like mosquito bites. Hiking location was southern california, santa monica mountains. ??

Unlike the DoD, I’m not looking to spend $500 on a bump helmet just to wear NVGs on night hikes. Any suggestions on budget friendly bump helmets? All I need is a snug fit and an NVG shroud. I’ve looked around at some FMA clones and heard good things but I want some insight.
