How U.S. Soldiers Are Using Their “Warhacks” To Transform Combat

I understand the desire for the military to keep soldiers safe, but war is, by it's very nature, unsafe.

Far too often some REMF will kill a new innovation because of some ridiculous rule.

The gunner's seat was killed because it doesn't have a seat belt, even though the original seat didn't have a seat belt. Furthermore, if Private Snuffy is in that new Army approved seat and wearing some sort of a seat belt and is killed, he's going to be almost impossible to get out of the gunner seat.

This mentality of ultimate safety and you can't use it unless it was designed by a team of engineers at DARPA that will never have to use it in combat is the kind of crap that the military needs to get rid of.

Isn't that what CW5s are for , to remember everything and teach the next group in????
