pension systems that reduce the concussion pressures from blasts and impacts. Why do we issue the next best thing? Because the idiots who are in charge don't have to wear it and someone is making a Buck.

The Military Intelligence thinking

My son is a Marine in Iraq right now and I am in the Air Force Reserve. I have been a cop for over 18 years. I wear body armor every day. Over the years the only time I have worn the best armor on the market is when I paid for it myself. Whenever the Government issues it, we get issued armor that is sub standard to the latest Technology. We can never seem to find out who makes the final decision on what we finally are issued. Strange isn't it.

I as well as my son have been issued the Interceptor Armor, which blows my mind since for a couple of years now everyone has known the superiority of Pinnacle's Dragon skin. My son is getting shot at with Ak47's, and 7.62 type rounds. The whole vest should stop these rounds not just where the added SAPI plates are. The current Interceptor unless hit in the SAPI plates only stops a 9mm round. I want my son to be wearing the best and nothing less.

Helmets are also being manufactured with better ballistics and suspension systems that reduce the concussion pressures from blasts and impacts. Why do we issue the next best thing? Because the idiots who are in charge don't have to wear it and someone is making a Buck.

The Military Intelligence thinking is not to allow soldiers to buy their own body armor BUT allow after market armor to be added to soft skinned vehicles. In 2005,I saw plywood walls filled with sandbags stacked 3 to 4 feet above the center of gravity and overloading the steering gear. How many people died in single vehicle rollovers caused by after market armor vs. people that died from privately owned body armor?

As if this is something that was not being told to the military before. Why does it take so long to "investigate" such a high priority situation as this? My best guess is that the contractors of DOD materials pull a lot of "political strings" to keep supplying inferior products at the cost of soldier's lives. Do a search on "dragon skin" here on M.C and you will see many previous articles on the military making soldiers shed their DS armor for the less effective crap they were supplying. Follow the money and as Morpheus said, "The truth will set you free."

Well, I am not s
