Uh oh, looks like Rummy's stepped in it this time. He should have said he didn't know, and he'd get back to the soldier on that question. Yes, that would have been the prudent response.

The Corporal's question, and Rummy's answer, both seem to assume the validity of the premise that virtually all vehicles in Iraq should be armored. Is this really the case? It seems to me that there would be a trade-off of armor vs. vision, maneuverability, speed, capacity and the like.
