This Quote Is From Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. Nice.
Sounds like MacMillan killed JFK
Wearing the Ghillie suit gives you the following:
100+ Sneak
10+ Accuracy with rifles
10+ Perception
Perks:
Oi, Suzy
This perk allows you to distract your enemy as well as give you temporary firepower boost with sniper rifles.
Or you could do the party cone hat for plus 11 perception. Soldiers foot wear for plus 40 sneak and plus 5 to accuracy and damage with military weapons. Ninja's pants for plus 31 sneak. Crazy Earl's vest for 37 sneak which gives the following perk
Old man's ghost: which can be used for crazy Earl to show you how to double the damage of your next rifle shot for momentarily slowness. Or can be used to distract enemies with a crazy old man ghost
That's why you never go for a set bonus. Things that don't look good will have better stats 😛🤷🏻♂️
YESS finally someone said it
Oí, Suzy... huh?? *gets knocked out by McMillan*

@Simple History yeh
My uncle is a wildlife reserve anti poacher in South Africa. He showed me how to build a ghillie suit and I cannot understate how much these things make you disappear. I’ve had people walk mere meters past me without seeing us
Edit: for anyone interested to build a ghillie get a base camo uniform, preferably jacket and trousers (jump suit can work) and a boonie hat. Super glue and sew a fishnet to the back, with extra going over the shoulder and down the arms and a small overhang over the butt. Get jute, dye it differently and cut bunches to different lengths. Then tie the jute to the fishnet using a slightly less than random sequence. (Try to make slight groups of colours but don’t blend the colours. And make sure to use random lengths of jute). Lots of UA-cam video guides.
Thats cool af

Ghillie Suit technology has advanced a long way since the research for this video was done. It's almost 20 years out of date now. Enjoyable watch although a shame that modern ghillie suit techniques were not included.
Can you educate us please?

Watched the video at home before I came to work and the video was excellent. I never knew the story behind the ghillie suit. I can't even imagine the discipline and training one would have to go through to be a sniper. Build your own ghillie suit and doing the maintenance on it and/or your other/backup ghillie suits. Impressive!
Snipers have been assigned specialists since the late late 16th century, not the 20th century. Snipers were usually assigned as individuals within units who showed exceptional skills at shooting. During the Napoleonic wars there were a few small units as special sniper / marksman units. About the only change that came about in the 20th century was the establishment of permanent sniper training units and the formal issue of camouflage gear like a ghillie suit. Prior to that they were ad hoc systems organised by the individuals on a personal choice basis.

Dunno bout that...
Much of the Boogaloo will be fought against fairly low tech opposition. Very few will have working NVGs and FLIR by the fifth month in. Concealment will still be a thing...
And if by chance you run into enemy so equipped, there will always be other means. Pull a Gideon, of you know what that means. Illumination is its own weapon. (Or at least extremely useful subterfuge.)
Thank you I've watched alot your video over the past year and I'm only in 5th grade but I love war history and hope I can be in the military one day, thank you very much for everything you've posted

The Levatos Scouts are definitely the inspiration for the Tanith 1st and Only. Both are stealthy light infantry with Gaelic (or Gaelic inspired in the case of the Tanith) culture.
Legit love watching these vids they teach me more than history class
I've gotta get one. They look like the coolest military clothing ever
I highly recommend making one suited to your environment, it may be heavier and less breathable than store-bought ones, but will be much more effective.
I got one when roughly 7 years ago and it was 200 bucks. They're really cool but they're basically an oven. Not to mention any stray branches or sticks will get stuck in them very easily
Know any stores with a cheap price?
Get what? I dont see anything in this video except for the shoe commericial
Ok so there’s a compromise between effectiveness and ease of use. A full Ghillie is very effective but it’s hot and heavy and useless unless stalking.
A compromise is a ghillie cape made from a piece of sniper veil material, cut a split in the veil and tie the corners to the edge forming a loop for your arms.
Then add your jute material to the cape, again the compromise here is the more you add the more bulky this will be but the better the camouflage. Pair this with a boonie hat with netting stitched to the top and jute added and you have a fairly effective system that can be easily slipped on and off and fits in the pocket of your cargo pants.
Your animations are getting better, keep It up and more success to you guys.

Immediately remembers All Ghillied up😭
4:39, the suit should be more puffy to hide the shape of the head and make the shape in line with the shoulders, as I recall. The head’s silhouette is still visible here.
Edit: (Some other things) The legs and the some of the front of the suit can be omitted given that the sniper only exposes his head and upper torso in firing position. Also, scope and binocular lenses are covered by some in thin fabric or partially obstructed to prevent glare. A sniper should not make sudden moves or draw unnecessary attention to themselves, unlike the clip where the sniper is suffering in the heat. Some more advanced ghillie suits do have special fabric which prevents an unnatural heat signature.
can u translate me this on germany pls?🙏
xtentac¡on / An0nYm0us
4:39, der Anzug sollte geschwollener sein, um die Form des Kopfes zu verbergen und die Form an die Schultern anzupassen, wie ich mich erinnere. Die Silhouette des Kopfes ist hier noch sichtbar.
Bearbeiten: (Einige andere Dinge) Die Beine und einige der Vorderseite des Anzugs können weggelassen werden, da der Scharfschütze nur seinen Kopf und Oberkörper in Schussposition freilegt. Zielfernrohr- und Fernglaslinsen sind von einigen mit dünnem Stoff bedeckt oder teilweise blockiert, um Blendung zu vermeiden. Ein Scharfschütze sollte keine plötzlichen Bewegungen ausführen oder unnötige Aufmerksamkeit auf sich ziehen, im Gegensatz zu dem Clip, in dem der Scharfschütze unter der Hitze leidet. Einige fortgeschrittenere Ghillie-Anzüge haben einen speziellen Stoff, der eine unnatürliche Hitzesignatur verhindert.
