Either train your guys to the same proficiency level with the SOFT-T or remove it from your vest.


As for the CAT's, I know of several medics, including myself, who have had several of them break coming right out of the plastic.... OMMV but I stay away from them as much as possible...
Thats the exact reasoning I had both on my vest. What a soldier can do during training is one thing, but what he can do while under fire is another, unless the training is up to par. That SOFTT is meant mainly for me and my two qualified CLS tankers.

Do you mainly stick to the SOFTT's or are there other types you use?
