In the old days, women supported the troops by sacrificing the nylon for their stockings to be used for parachutes. Now, ladies can salute our soldiers by wearing Manolo Blahnik camouflage suede pumps ($555 at neimanmarcus.com). Call the Rage a patriotic frump but it feels disrespectful to teeter about in camouflage heels when U.S. troops are wishing to hell that they could get out of Iraq. The Paul Smith camouflage bucket hat ($90 at saks.com) for men affects her the same way. If you had just returned home from Baghdad and suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder, would you be thrilled to see some chick skip by in her camo Manolos?

Weigh in, vets and troops.
