He's wearing body armour ... so are the rest of them. Just one of the many technological advantages our men have over the bad guys. I'm totally thrilled to see them putting those advantages to good use. This is the payoff to some engineers' time and effort. A good man got into a rotten situation, lived to tell about it and fight another day. This in turn will pay dividends in training the next generation of Soldiers and Marines.
