True..... but don't hold your breath on the "official jammers".  Most of our
boys have been without the latest personal body armor (IBA) since their
arrival there.  The new armor is much more effective, lighter and cooler. It
was last promised in December but has yet to be issued to most frontline
units.... interestingly some of the USMC infantry units present have been
issued vests that are Vietnam veterans, or none at all.... and so it goes
<sigh>. Why am I not surprised.
