What is the significance of a reflective PT Belt? Is it a sign of risk aversion? Who really wore these in a combat zone?

This is a free for all post as you see fit and if you disagree then say so.
We have all seen them. Some other things to consider. What do other branches think? I never belonged to a unit that wore them in a combat zone; the units that did wear them in combat seemed to also suffer from poor leadership, morale, and compentance (not individual but as a team).
Where would we be without these reflective belt over our camo?
Survey is who worn them in a comabt zone?

When deployed at Kandahar, there were SNCOs at every entrance to the Boardwalk, the most lit up place there at night. Asking people about their reflective belts. Granted, there was no one out in the pitch black roads to see if there people wearing them. I considered the entire thing a waste of man power and time.

During my time in the Corps I never had to wear my reflective belt. Toward the end of my tour in the Corps we all were issued the belts and the command decision, from both SNCO's and officers, was that they were stupid and we were told not to wear them. That was in garrison. There is no way that I would have worn that thing during a COMBAT deployment. That's just asking for becoming a bigger target.

I would not want to have that on in the field. That seems to be giving away ypur position. Stong positivity of being shot.

From a safety point of view, I can see where leadership would want their troops to wear it. The sand storms were pretty hairy and visibility was horrid. However, the reflective belt only works as well as those idiots who do not pay attention to their surroundings. As far as my personal opinion goes...they should not be worn while deployed.
