    Oh, so who was the guy in digital camo standing next to the grey armored vehicle doing that?

    Because im pretty sure that wasn’t a cop; he looked like he might’ve actually know how to use his gun.

        National Guard ARE part of the military, they wear U.S. military uniforms and are deployed to U.S. invaded and occupied countries like Iraq.

          They are officially civilians, no? I know they can be called up into active service but outside of that…

      Cops have camo and rifles. I genuinely don’t think the army has vehicles any color other than green, tan, and woodland camo.

      Did it look like this?
