Why is that? What makes us so special, that even our army privates can outfight most soldiers worldwide?

"even our army privates."

Our Army is the best in the world and have proven it time and again. We have Army privates that are not Infantry engaging the enemy and kicking his a$$.

It goes back to training and having the money and resources to train troops properly. That is exactly what I was geting at with the kurds. Some of these guys have had a rifle in thier hands since they were kids. Even then, they need proper trianing to hit a target especially in built up areas where there are a lot of innocent people in the area.
