That would be a great cover, you even get to gather intel on tape while standing in the open during broad daylight and being "protected".
I don't know the exact time frame, but closer to the begining of this thing (maybe a year and a half ago about when the donkey cart was used as a rocket launcher), there was an incident where some insurgents used "PRESS" jackets to fire on a group of Marines. The Marines ended up detaining some legit press members in the confusion.

I'm suprised they haven't done it more often.
