Are you saying it is a dumb idea to make this deck and give it to the troups, or just that it is a dumb idea to collect it?
They printed similar decks in WWII but the pictures were to make the soldiers very familiar with the shapes of enemy planes. If the troups play with the cards, they can not help but function as flash cards. In modern warfare, the enemy planes are engaged beyond the horizon on computer screens. But the troups could recognize one of these guys, just like we use most wanted posters. At least they might recognize one if a local brings one of these guys to their attention. Don't think the special forces don't need to know all these guys by sight.
