What the heck is the blue tape on their uniforms for? In a real war, marking yourself with blue is one of the last things you would do. Blue is one color you can see the furthest away; good way to let the enemies know exactly where (or WHO) you are.
Because both sides are basically using the same gear. That’s why all the vehicles are marked as well.
Ukraine usually puts yellow tape around their arm or leg. Blue seems much more subtle...
Usually? As in how much earlier prior to this conflict? Using any colors that are not found in nature, especially in those shades, on top of CAMO, is generally a big no-no. They are being marked for CAMERAS to find and distinguish; soldiers, even those of different sides, could identify them through their patches, uniform pattern, etc.
Who knows prior. But in most pics from this battle ukraine wears yellow tape on their appendages.
