: SHEEP-DIPPED - Stripping a soldier of his military uniform and identification so he can pose as a civilian during a covert mission. From "Ravens: Covert War in Laos," a 2004 documentary shown on the (U.S.) Discovery Times channel on April 11, 2004.

How pathetic! Sheep-dipping is a process whereby sheep are immersed in a biocide that kills parasites.
