Defeat thermal imaging

Via hefferman1, L&P

I can almost hear an old grandma type lady who believes in freedom, as she pulls her children close and starts to tell them how to defeat the Gorgon.

Don't be afraid little children the Gorgon is not to be feared if you prepare.

Step 1, get two space blankets that is brown on one side and has the normal silver on the other side.

Step 2, sew them together with the silver sides facing each other. That way the silver side can't be seen by guys in the air, or on the ground.

Step 3, Attach color netting of the best color to blend into your environment to the space blankets.

Step 4, Tie jute twine that is color that best blends into your environment to the netting, till you have a Ghillie Blanket that will also defeat Thermal imaging.

This is not a new idea, the Chinese used mats that were like this in the Korean war. Lt. General Lewis Burwell "Chesty" Puller mentioned them in his biography "Marine! The Life of Chesty Puller". The mats did not have to contend with thermal imaging, so the space blanket part was not needed.

Improvise, Adapt, Overcome my little children of freedom.

Here is even a cheap way to avoid having to make your own, by just putting these two things together.

One

Two

If you can't sew, then you can even use black tie ties to put these together.
