Gainesville, Georgia-area residents have collected more than 10,000 cans of shaving cream for US Marines in Afghanistan. Members of the 1st Battalion, 5th Marines, are using shaving cream to mark the location of suspected roadside bombs. The shaving cream evaporates after two or three hours, so Taliban can't return later to plant another bomb or otherwise use the markings against the Marines. Source: Gainesville Times
