Military's 'best in the world' body armor...

MSN video

tell me there isn't something fishy to this brigadier general's story...sounds to me like they're avoiding the cost of the best armor...

I saw a test of this dragonskin on discovery channel, and they ended up setting it on top of a frag grenade and it didn't even penetrate the plates, it simply blew the entire armor section off of the vest from the blast...fuck the military, their armor is not the best...and it's completely obvious.

Again you see how corrupt the military-industrial complex is. They really don't care about us. We are pawns in the grand scheme of their greed. so what if a few hundred un-necessary deaths occur as long as the good old boys make a profit. It's all about the Benjamins.

yup, just like that one soldier's father said..."to them, it's simply a number...to us back home, it's a hole in our soul"

They're replacing the Hummer with the Cougar because of what we have learned about IEDs.....to keep the old armour is rediculous.

Have a good one!:s4:
