Just a few of my favorites.
Make attempts to develop multi- functional gear to replace current one-task items.
Throw it away when it dies.
Provide the platoon and squad with small unit logistics vehicles (SULVs) that can follow closely behind the unit during combat operations. Place most of the contents of the Soldier’s Assault Rucksack on these vehicles.
Place some of the Soldier’s basic load of ammunition on these vehicles as well as specialty items (AT- 4s, SMAW- Ds, etc.).
Consider using available HMMWVs, Gators, and other vehicles currently within Task Forces as surrogate SULVs.
Develop robotic vehicles to replace manned SULVs.
Looks like the Team Sergeant (Sanchez) jumped ship and went to fight with the Sky Soldiers. LOL - "Sure, I'll be on your little study team sir." As soon as they get to the combat zone - "Who's in the shit?" Blaaaw!
Very slick presentation though. I would like to see the data on the A Teams that went in to 'Stan in '02.
"Percentage of Bodyweight - 125% Communications NCO - 210%" LOL
