Greetings Oakley Hive Mind! I am somewhere North of 60 years old, almost 22 years of that spent in the U.S. Army.
Back in 1991 before, during, and after Desert Storm, I was kicking around Iraq and part of Southern Turkey. While there doing “stuff” I was lucky enough to get a few goodie boxes while getting resupplied. We got cool candy, Hershey chocolate that would not melt (pic attached), such things. But in one box I got there were a pair of black sunglasses. I would swear that they were Oakleys…and before anyone asks no…Sadly I don’t have them any longer. I scratched the holy carp out of them over time and probably tossed them in a rash act of youthful stupidity. On the up side I got to eat the chocolate bar and still have the shoulder patch!
Anyone else recall these sunglasses? My Google-Fu must be weak as I can find nothing referencing these particular sunglasses.
Thoughts? Ideas? Wild guesses?
Inquiring minds want to know!

. Seems to me it was very close to a Straight Jacket or Monster Dog. I may have been an Infantryman back in the day but I had the heart of an artist 
. My memory was the temples were closer to the smooth line of the Monster Dog but slimmer like a Straight Jacket. Sure was hoping Jim Jannard would pop into the conversation saying…it was the M-DS-Frame 001 and I happen to have a case extra in storage for the whole Oakley Forum!…one for you, and you, and you!
