#1 Shoot the guy with the beard and if they all are bearded, shoot them all.

#2 Their "leaders" think it's OK for them to hide under burquas, but going beardless is not allowed...

#3 Attack weapons team ??

Is that what we used to call a pink team? Yes, I know this makes me sound like one of the old fogeys, but then I are one.

Extra points if you can explain to the others what I am referring to.

#4 Pink:
One recon/observation--white.
One attack--red.

'cause red teams couldn't see enough and white teams couldn't do what needed to be done when they saw something.

Also, one red was generally sufficient, so by going pink, you could put reds in twice as many places.
