I’m slow to understand why such a puny Army weapon deployment story is, well, a story.

Because this is not a direct-impingement AR clone rifle.

This is A Big Deal.

1. It's the Marines, not the Army.
2. I put it in 'General/Chat', not 'News/Activism'.
3. Thousands of Americans died in Vietnam with their useless, jammed, untested, rushed into combat piece-of-crap AR-15s in their hands. I'd prefer not to see a repeat in Afghanistan.
