“That movie was underrated. Total guilty pleasure.”

The BOOK was great.
The movie was a total POC.
Have you read the book?

It's instructive to take a look at where we were in 1970: Three Walking Machines by the University of Wisconsin - Madison Mechanical Engineering Department by Professor Ali Seireg. These were created to help paraplegics walk. Of course it rapidly morphed to war machines. You can see the powered exoskelton at the 2:00 point.

“How much GI field maintenace is necessary under battlefield conditions, extreme weather, river crossings, etc?”

The poop incinerator will provide warmth and by the time it’s operational anti-gravity boots will help with river crossings.

I first read about exoskeltons in this November 1965 Popular Science article "Man Amplifiers" when I was 14 years old! My God...that was 53 years ago! I was taking my first drafting course in ninth grade.

Put REI in charge of sizes. Then it’ll be “Sorry troop, we only have XXXL and XXXS left.”
