My brother just joined the Navy, smart move for him from the marines/army. We think they feel that way due to political issue yes, but mainly because they do not want to step on a land mine. I feel alot for those troops dying for nothing. Im not sure how they are all pleased with their equipment..is this mainly the weapons? They have good weapons but I know it is not the b/s for protection they wear because it is not that protective.
