We met a moonbat at Walter Reed who bought into the BS going around that our troops had less than the best available body armor and that he had purchased, at his own cost of $5,000, some Dragonskin armor for his kid. The kid was wearing it in violation of orders.

There are reports out there of irregularities in the statements and tests by Dragonskin's manufacturer and in news reports broadcast by NBC News, in particular Lisa Myers. If the reports of misleading the public are true, and it appears that they are, Dragonskin's manufacturer and Lisa Myers have put our troops at risk.

The Moonbats are killing their own kids by buying into any and every Bush Bashing BS that comes along.

Moonbats' Kids Died

could this be Darwin’s theory at work if the children of the moonbats are the ones more likely to die because they are not wearing the armor that has been shown to be superior?

Wikipedia has an interesting article on Dragonskin, which I never heard of until this thread. Apparently, if I read the article correctly, the Dragonskin ceramic discs fall apart, or become dislodged somehow, at temperatures above 120 degrees F. I can understand the military’s reservations, as this would be less than ideal in desert conditions.

Last night on the Military channel the program “Future Weapons” hosted by that ex-Seal had a segment on the DragonSkin body armor. They shot it full of 5.56 and 7.62 steel-core AP rounds and it stopped them all. Then they threw the shot up vest over a fragmentation grenade. No penetration.

If it works as demonstrated in the show, the stuff is pretty awsome. Perhpas better than what is being used now. But the point of the article is that the stuff we have now works pretty good.
