Magazine Retention

Question:

Why is there such a fixation on retaining empty magazines in Army units? Guys will spend a whole bunch of time trying to stuff empty magazines into their pockets or back into pouches when the situation dictates to just drop them and continue to shoot.

Not sure how this way of doing business came about and am trying to influence commanders to emphasize the soldiers life over holding on to a fifteen dollar empty magazine.

What happened over the years?

Thank you

Gene
