Night vision glasses with color - GIF

I would love to see the night vision technology the military uses today. The ones we used in my unit in the 1970's, where we had one per Platoon, produced nothing but shades of green, but boy how glad we were to have them! It gave us the ability to "own the night" as our unit was known for. Back then we called them "the Cadillac in a box," because the price was around the cost of a new Caddy.

Earlier models for the M-16 rifle were ridiculous, since they were heavier than the rifle and trying to balance the NVS and recoil were next to impossible. So glad to see out soldiers having them mounted on their helmets now and swung out of the way when not needed.
