Germany's War Color.
(Brooklyn Standard Uniop)

An invisible gray is worn by Ger
man soldiers. 1t lie gray with a
greenish tint and is said to blend with
the ground. or with houses; or. in
fact. with almost anything better
than any other color. Not only are
the kaiser's men clothed in these
suits, but their rifles. the csnnons
and field pieces and carriages upon
which they rest are similarly colored.
The German war chiefs are confident
that their troops are the least easily
seen and therefore offer the poorest
targets of any soldiers in the world.
