That is eight tons of awesome Nyles.
Yeah, no clue who the guys I saw were. They were wearing what I would call the Army Combat Shirt in that multi-cam type pattern you guys wear with subdued Canadian flag patches on one sleeve and the ISAF patch on the other.
They all had M-4 variants of some type and one guy had an M-249 of some sort.
Oh, and they were all wearing soft patrol caps.
