The dust is a smokescreen. Nothing more.

Who is using it as a smokescreen? Maybe someone is using it as a smokescreen, if they are I haven't seen it and would like to see that information. I only mention the road dust as a possibilty to why so many weapons jammed. If it turns out that there was no more dust encountered by the 507th than was encountered anywhere else than it can be eliminated as a cause to the high failure rate of the weapons. I haven't seen any claims made as to the dust by the person's involved yet. If there has been claims made by the person's involved with the 507th, could you link me to them?

Well you did it now.

Criticize the 507th for anything and the defend Lynch to the death crew shows up. Sheesh, it's obvious to anyone with a lick of real military experience that the reason the weapons jammed was failure to properly maintain. 3ID and the Marines had functioning weapons, I saw it live on Fox News.

People need to accept the facts of life, as your daddy said Chad (somewhat), a clean weapon will save your life, a dirty weapon will get you killed.
