lifeasdaddy - Silly String saving lives in Iraq

A mother sends Silly String in Christmas packages to her son's army unit in Iraq.

It's a life saver when used to detect trip wires for booby traps.

See the video here.

Despite this reference to the military application of Silly String by  US army troops dated November 4, 2005 it is still not being supplied to troops by the U.S.Army.
