<div class="IPBDescription">NS Symbolism Like in Books?</div> Well someone brought up communism and capitolism in NS... But are there other forms of symbolism in NS? Marines wear green because they are envious of the aliens because they can fly... The green uniform for the marines is green not because of camouflage... The aliens symbolize life on Mars... Yes, NS is turning out to be a great novel...

    Well, you're right about the armor and camouflage at least. The best would be black or dark-grey uniforms. Other than that, I don't have a clue what you're talking about.

    I think the marine camo is supposed to work like zebra's camo, it keeps the hungry predators from being able to pick out an individual from the crowd. MMMM TSA Marine....
