    This time, let go your conscious self and act on instinct. Your eyes can deceive you. Don’t trust them.

    How bad was it really, though? This feels like those Inuit goggles that are narrow slits, though those are admittedly wider.

      Bad enough that snipers rarely used them!

      Machinegunners would sometimes wear them though. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure!

        Lol.

        Sniper: I can’t see shit.
        Machine gunner: I’ll give you my eyes for more Dakka.

          A man posing with a rifle with the mask, instead of a machinegun, and prone instead of in a trench, but you can imagine what a fellow whose job is to be the most obvious target around might want that kind of head profile for! A concussion from a rifle bullet is better than a skull split like a watermelon!
