Ahhhh - this could (will) go on forever. Spend money to train super soldiers that can use anything to accomplish the mission. Quit trying to address training deficencies with super equipment that just puts money in a contractor's pocket.

The only good thing i can say about the ACU is its the only uniform thats good cammo vs Night Vision Devices, other then that it sucks.

Training is key to success like you said, does you no good to have 90lbs of high speed gear on a poorly trained Soldier. I would rather have a Expert with a M-1 Grand then a guy that took 2 tries to get marksman with the XM-8.
