    Post-war she could easily pivot to making Chewbacca suits.

      That’s what I was thinking. I’m not a ghillie suit aficionado, but that seems to be a pretty darn good one.

    Do not mess with Mrs. Liubov. She has friends. Who are snipers. In ghillie suits.

    She looks like she’s got another 20 years in her. What a unit.

      My grandmother died at 99 years old and until about 5 months prior to her death she was still pottering around the garden and doing housework. Some people just seem to save getting old up until the final few weeks of their life.

    It’s nice and helpful and all, but maybe it’s time to let Mrs. Liubov retire?

    How effective is a suit like that (specifically like the one in the image)? The fact that it appears to be all brown seems like it’d be poor cover in a field or forest. Wouldn’t you want something that has a mix of different colors in it? I mean, it looks like a rotting hay bale, which works if you’re surrounded by lots of rotting foliage, but what if you’re not?
