wrt body armor: the wounded in Iraq also have a much greater chance of surviving. In World War II, 30 percent of all injured troops died; 24 percent died in Vietnam. In Iraq, just 9 percent of the injured lose their lives. Improved body armor and advances in battlefield medicine have saved countless lives.

The troops did not come up with the failed Bush policy, so don't blame THEM. Denying them body armor, because they "won't wear it" doesn't wash either.
