true..but after all the BS i hear bout how unhumane war is and possible side effects from one weapon system or another on the soldiers...it does have some meaning...i.e. dupleted uranium munitions....(tank buster rounds)...let me know what ya think...p.s. as for the wellbeing of the troops I'm all for that..but common sense must surface at times
