I opened this thread hoping someone posted the mugshot of the SEAL that was arrested... Disappointing!

Rocking the MARPAT, very nice. What exactly are all those damn things on their helmets? I recognize the NGV mount, at least one looks comm related, and I'd venture a fair guess at least one is some sort of small IR strobe, but can't be for sure. If they might be opsec related then no need to go into detail nor will I inquire anymore.
yes that's AOR1 and not MARPAT. It's not the FROG (fire resistant) uniform the Marines wear, but something else ;)
The thing on the back of the helmets is a battery pack for a camera that you can attach to your helmet.
ahhhh.....makes sense, helmet cam's have become more and more prevalent these days with the military.
could see what looked like at least one SCAR in there. thought they had pulled those from the SOCOM inventory?
The article I posted on page 6 says only the SCAR-Light (5.56) were pulled. The SCAR-Heavy (7.62) were good to go. Looking at the mags on these pics, these are "Heavies".
The 3rd picture looks like it has a couple of precariously pointed rifles. Also, are the guys in the "guacamoles" interpreters?
