Oversized Cattle Prod? :tongue:
:eek: I wanna chase that guy around with a water gun :D
I want to point out some "problems" with this photo, further supporting Slashdot's suspicions about the legitimacy of this "company". The person in that photo is most certainly NOT a member of the US Military. These are just but a few of the things that first stood out to me.
1. The blouse lacks service nametapes
2. Wrinkled, unstarched (ie. new) cammies
3. Weathered cover, new cammies
4. Manner in which the blouse is buttoned
5. Trousers are civilian, non-military cammies
6. Those are not military combat boots (silver eyelets, just to name one characteristic)
7. No branch of the US Military leaves their cammie trousers unsecured like that
I called the phone number listed at the websited, hosted on a free account with an @lycos email address for the company president. The voicemail message said something like "Extreme ADS and Lisa Guitar". Couldn't quite make out what was being said. The recording was poorly recorded and rather unprofessional. Definitely not on par with the, "You've reached..." that you would expect from a government contractor charged with scientific development of modern weaponry.
This is a hoax.
That's some good investigative reporting. Thanks. :)
