Camouflage - and a History of Military Deception - Sabaton History 129 [Official]

Todays episode is about a song that is not a Sabaton original, but a cover they did of Stan Ridgways Camouflage from 1986. The story itself is easy enough to understand if you follow the lyrics, but it inspired us to do an episode not about the song, but about camouflage itself; its history, how it works, how its supposed to work, and even its limitations.
