so getting our soldiers killed is the best action to take.....weird, how can that be the best strategy when that makes the military weaker every time someone dies?

cause alot of someones is alot of people.

We are a military at war, people will die.

It doesn't matter if we're going to be in Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, or North Korea. We will loose soldiers no matter where we fight. But you know what, that's just what happens. And for every one of my comrades they get, we kill or capture at least eight.

...

We have world class hospitals and protective gear that is saving lives that would have been lost even 10 years ago. The reason we are seeing so many amputees as a result of this war is because those are people who would have been killed a decade ago. Thanks to our amazing medical corps and top notch protective gear, their lives are being saved.

Look, you clearly don't know what you're talking about, so please stop.

what does being covered in plastic have to do with being killed by a bullet that the best protective gear could have prevented?

You can't have your entire body covered in kevlar and ceramic plating. You wouldn't be able to move. Like that guy.

So now you're trying to tell a combat veteran what's the best sort of equipment to take into combat?

You are wrong. It would be incredibly restricting, not to mention hot. It's 130 degrees over there, 110 in the shade. How well do you think 100 pounds of ceramic plating would ventilate?
