I've got two british shemaghs from the first gulf war. They never had the tassles (great) and come in an orangey-sand colour (if that makes sense). They are excellent for a variety of uses. Just before the second gulf war my local surplus store had got a shed-load of them and knocked them out at £1 each ($1.50). This is where you all shoot me for not buying a gross of them for equipped members - because they're now £6.99 again ($10.50). On reflection, I'm going to monitor that situation and if they do 'sell-up' again I'll buy loads and you can all get them.
