My main memory of that topic is a teacher going out of his way to explain why the Nazis did it with a Roald Dahl-esque attitude. Even at the time it was hair-raising stuff.

I was told it was for going above and below decks, that they'd be able to see in the low light really quickly when they went below

Betty and Boba both like to sit in the crook of my arm. Which is ok with Boba, but Betty weighs as much as a fucking Labrador…

I thinks she sees me as a fellow cat, and would find it weird to climb on me. This is her right now, squidged against my left leg.

it took Daphne a couple of years to sit on my lap, but she's been all about laps ever since

It took Mia about four years before she would sit for more than a minute. But, once she got used to it, she'd sit for hours. 🙂

Pickle is a chest cat. You lie down, he's right there, purring on your torso. You sit down, he's no interest. Basically, he's very affectionate if *he* can look down on *you*, but not if it's the other way around.

Extremely 'on brand', now that I see it written down.

seconded, although myth busters did test it and it is an effective way to keep night vision.

In battle however a single flash from a pistol would be enough to wipe out any advantage it gave.
