This is like the armored helicopter thread. RPGs worked, solution more armor.

'That's not going to go over very well with some of the people around here.'

Now you'll be talking to them. Don't you know there are casualties? Non-mil REMFs bump.

Yep, some of us non mil REMFs spend more time outside the wire than do some of the uniformed military.

And some of us non nil REMF types travel the same roads and face the same risks and hazards that the uniformed military does. But most of us are unarmed.

Just so that you know I'm a true weenie that has more than a few miles on the road and in the air in Iraq, I have seen the day to day operations and faced the same frustrations that the troops do. There ain't enough to secure the roads. Just that simple.

But Franks isn't here. And neither are you guys.

What do you guys think about you guys think about spectators that tell the players what they don't need and how they should play the game? Just a wild guess, but I'm guessing that neither of you actually hear what the troops have to say on a day to day basis. Or see their equipment. Or see what happens to it and them.

Apparently I think we can do better and you guys don't. Pretty simple. And remember, I'm just a non-mil REMF, and a weenie to boot!
