This is my point, if USA solders look to be well looked after, then this itself helps knock the confidence of the 'enamy'. But when they see the brits on the news being badly treat, then they must think that to fight UK solders is not a problem as they will have no protective gear.

This is my point.
they don't live on cold baked beans, they may not have a McDonalds but they get hot wholsesome food, that's never been questioned by anyone (except you). you talk as though iraqi soldiers would be more scared of US soldiers because they have massages and big macs, WTF! there soldiers for fucks sake.

it was body armour that your refering to, most soldiers had it but due to a logistical error a few didn't get it in time, which resulted in the death of 1 soldier, which is very bad but don't blow it out of all proportion.
