However, it is not meaningless that US forces found thousands of brand new chem/bio suits and atropine kits when they overran Iraqi positions.

That's nonsense, but gets repeated ever so often..
Someone please tell me a half-way modern army out there that does NOT have protective suits and atropine!
And that stuff is supposed to be with the soldiers at all times as part of basic equipment (the atropine only in case of war), not piling up in a depot somewhere!
