LITTLE PINK LIES. (2 extremely sceptical news stories)

L. Mountbatten.

You cannot help wondering why he wanted to paint things pink?
"Britain at War magazine," carries an interesting article about Louis Mountbatten, he invented the camouflage colour, "Mountbatten Pink."
The wikipedia article closes with the ironic sentence, "The primary problem with Mountbatten pink was that it stood out around midday, when the sky was no longer pink, and the traditional battleship grey was much less visible."

Strange that everyone else seemed to think "drab green," "drab gray," etc were more appropriate colours.
"British Royals" and "British Establishment" figures get away with things no one else can.
Interesting overview of Military Camouflage.

Here is another story which should be treated with a great degree of scepticism.
It implies Margaret Thatcher did not sleep or got very little sleep during the Falklands War.
Anyone who goes for 4 days without sleep will start to hallucinate and have "psychotic episodes." Somone is trying to legendise Thatcher and is willing to tell a pack of lies to do it.

Makes you wonder what camouflage "the theological creepers" wear?
Jude 1:4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
