Although my aunt told me, and I believe it to be true thru some non scientific experimentation of my own, that color blind people see camouflaging better than non color blind people. She said the military uses this when taking photo reconnaissance of places that someone is trying to hide something. Apparently the shading just blurs in people that can see the colors while the rest of us can clearly see the camouflaging! That is the testing I did, I looked at photos, on the tv and in print, and can see the netting while my wife and others can not see the difference at all!
