Soldiers Load Carriage Review

I recently came across a review published in Military Medicine that may be of interest to some of the readers here. It reviews the effects of the soldier's load carriage from a historical, physiological, biomechanical and medical point of view. It supports much of what has been recommended. The entire study is too large to attach, so the abstract and conclusion section are attached here. If you are you would like a copy of the entire document, just PM me with your email. The study could be applied to the medical section as well, but I thought it would be appropriate here given the current discussion on this thread.
