Must learn not to write things in a hurry when I am half out of the office.
I forgot to add that the article was about the "Gaunter Scheme" Disruptive Camouflage. The article is in Windscreen number 119 Summer 2008 If anyone cannot get a copy of Windscreen let me know I can scan it in a email to you. Sorry for the confusion Kev
