I had a merc sniper who always wore a leather Flying Tigers bomber jacket
while off duty. Of course he had the military buzz cut, and a nasty scar
along his upper right arm (right above the cyber forearm). When out on a
run, he did have a very specific outfit that I had described. Since almost
all of them were night runs, he started out with black urban camo. Pistols
in a special forces holster on the right hip, along with the mag carriers.
Asorted other goodies on a swat rig (kind you get out of the US Cavalry
catalog). And he always had 2 black stripes painted on his face, one going
down over each eye from the forhead to the cheek.
