>>A white man in a turban or a giant crow costume will attract no attention anywhere.

Funny you say that. There's an interview on YT with retired Delta Force Sergeant Major nicknamed "Shrek". He mentioned how he used to do solo reconnaissance missions in Afghanistan, dressed as a local. When asked how he pulled this off, being a large white man with a weak command of the local languages, he replied: "Pretend to be a retard, and just grunt/mumble responses when stopped at checkpoints. You'd be surprised how NOBODY wants to deeply interrogate and anger a retard carrying an AK-47."



dang, your comment just took me down an hours long rabbit hole of watching YTs of Sergeant Major John McPhee...
